Popular questions
  1. How does ponceau stain work?

    In labs, “Ponceau stain” usually means Ponceau S (not the food color E124 Ponceau 4R); it’s an anionic azo dye that reversibly binds proteins on nitrocellulose or PVDF via electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions, giving red bands. As a similar sulfonated azo dye, E124 would color proteins non‑specifically by the same principle but isn’t the standard reagent.

  2. How to image ponceau stained membrane?

    Rinse to lower background, then image the wet membrane under white light with a flatbed scanner, gel imager, or phone camera—no special filters needed. After imaging, destain with water or TBST before immunodetection.

  3. How to make ponceau s solution?

    Ponceau S (different from E124) is typically prepared as 0.1% w/v dye in 5% v/v acetic acid in water; mix to dissolve and filter. Store at room temperature; optionally include ~0.1% SDS to speed staining.

  4. How to make ponceau stain?

    For protein blots, use Ponceau S: 0.1% w/v in 5% v/v acetic acid (water), filter, and use to briefly stain the membrane. E124 Ponceau 4R is a food colorant and isn’t standard for this application.

  5. How to remove ponceau stain?

    Wash the membrane in water or TBST until the red color disappears (typically 1–5 minutes); the staining is fully reversible and compatible with later antibody probing. If background persists, a brief rinse in dilute base (e.g., ~0.1 M NaOH) can clear it quickly.

  1. Hot wheels chaparral 2g 1968 red lines what colors did they come in?

    Red 2G (E128) is a single synthetic azo dye that imparts red to pink shades in foods; it doesn’t come in multiple colors.

  2. Hot wheels chaparral 2g 1968 red lines what colrs did they come in?

    E128 (Red 2G) only provides red/pink hues in foods and is not available in other colors.

  3. How muh is e128 worth in the us?

    E128 (Red 2G) isn’t approved for food use in the United States, so there’s no consumer market price for it.

  4. How to solve red on tx 2g on unifi controler?

    That’s a networking device issue; E128 is a synthetic red food dye that has been withdrawn in the EU and is not permitted in the US due to safety concerns.

  5. How to solve red on tx 2g on unifi controller?

    That’s a networking device issue; E128 is a synthetic red food dye that has been withdrawn in the EU and is not permitted in the US due to safety concerns.
