Stains-all ( English colors everything , 1-ethyl-2- [3- (1-ethylnaphto [1,2- d ] thiazolin-2-ylidene) -2-methyl-propenyl] naphto [1,2- d ] thiazolium bromide ) is a carbocyanine dye that stains anionic proteins , nucleic acids , anionic polysaccharides and other anionic molecules.
properties
Stains-all has metachromatic properties, as it changes its color after binding to a negatively charged molecule depending on the contact. The detection limit for phosphoproteins is less than 1 ng after one hour of staining, for anionic polysaccharides between 10 and 500 ng. Strongly anionic proteins are colored blue, proteoglycans are colored purple, and anionic proteins are colored pink. Furthermore, RNA with a detection limit of 90 ng is colored blue-purple and DNA with a detection limit of 3 ng is colored blue. Stains-all is light-sensitive, which is why staining with Stains-all is carried out in the absence of light and then immediately documented photographically. The coloring of anionic proteins can be made permanent by a subsequent silver coloring , which can only be colored poorly with silver without pretreatment. The analogue Ethyl- Stains-all has similar properties to Stains-all, with differences in solubility and coloring properties.
Applications
Stains-all stains nucleic acids, anionic proteins, anionic polysaccharides such as alginic acid and pectic acid , hyaluronic acid and dermatan sulfate , heparin , heparan sulfate and chondroitin sulfate , among other things . It is therefore used in biochemistry for SDS-PAGE , agarose gel electrophoresis and in histology , e.g. B. for coloring growth lines in bones .
