Our precast protein gels do not contain SDS but they can be run under denaturing conditions when used with the appropriate denaturing running buffer.
Note: NuPAGE Bis-Tris gels, Bolt Bis-Tris Plus gels, and Thermo Scientific Precise Tris-HEPES gels cannot be run under native conditions; they can only be run under denaturing conditions.
*Invitrogen Tris-Glycine gels: For Native electrophoresis, use Invitrogen Tris-Glycine Native Running Buffer. For Denaturing electrophoresis, use Invitrogen Tris-Glycine SDS Running Buffer
*NuPAGE Tris-Acetate gels: For Native electrophoresis, use Invitrogen Tris-Glycine Native Running Buffer. For Denaturing electrophoresis, use NuPAGE Tris-Acetate SDS Running Buffer
*NuPAGE Bis-Tris gels: For Denaturing electrophoresis, use NuPAGE MOPS-SDS Running Buffer or NuPAGE MES-SDS Running Buffer
*Bolt Bis-Tris Plus gels: For Denaturing electrophoresis, use Bolt MOPS SDS Running Buffer or Bolt MES SDS Running Buffer
*Thermo Scientific Precise Tris-Glycine gels: For Native electrophoresis, use Tris-Glycine SDS Running Buffer without SDS added. For Denaturing electrophoresis, use Tris-Glycine SDS Running Buffer.
*Thermo Scientific Precise Tris-HEPES gels: For Denaturing electrophoresis, use Tris-HEPES SDS Running Buffer.
