The blue protein loading dye contains one vial of blue loading buffer and one vial of 30X reducing agent. The combined solution is ideal for protein gel applications.

  • 1X Blue Loading Buffer Composition: 62.5 mM Tris-HCl (pH 6.8), 2% (w/v) SDS, 10% glycerol, 0.01% (w/v) bromophenol blue
  • 30X Reducing Agent: 1.25 M DTT
  • SDS interacts with positively charged amino acids of proteins, thereby disrupting interactions that form protein structures to separate proteins based on size rather than charge or shape 
  • DTT is present to help reduce structural disulfide bonds 
Blue Loading Buffer Reagents for SDS-PAGE:

3X SDS Blue Loading Buffer (8 ml):
187.5 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.0
6% SDS (w/v)
30% glycerol
0.03% bromophenol blue (w/v)

30X Reducing Agent (1 ml):
1.25 M DTT

Notes
  • Reagents stored at different temperatures.
  • Prepare fresh 3X Reducing Blue Loading Buffer by adding 1/10 volume 30X Reducing Agent to 1 volume of 3X Blue Loading Buffer.
  • Prepare samples by adding 2 volumes of Sample to 1 volume 3X Reducing Blue Loading Buffer (from step 1).
  • Heat samples to 95-100°C for 3-5 minutes.
  • After a quick microcentrifuge spin, load directly on to a gel. To ensure uniform mobiity, load an equal volume of 1X Reducing Blue Loading Buffer into any unused wells.
