I prefer to use the Coomassie Blue,when used as an infrared dye, may provide sensitive, post-electrophoretic in-gel protein detection that can rival even Sypro Ruby. Considering the central role of 2D gel electrophoresis in topdown proteomic analyses, a more cost effective alternative such as Coomassie Blue could prove an important tool in ongoing refinements of this important analytical technique.
So, when I am comparing two methods, is the highest value the best? Can I improve the dynamic range in 2-DE by enrichment and using Sypro instead Coomassie?
