Silver staining reactive groups

Comparison Of Silver Stain Reactive Groups With Commassie Stain Reactive Groups Recent studies concerning the mechanisms of... 

The best method to determine the success of antibody production to the minor components was made by two dimensional SDS-PAGE and immunoblotting (24). A comparison of the antisera (day 112 antisera) from the three groups demonstrated that the cascade immunization antisera detected a number of minor components (Figure 4C, arrows) which were not observed with the conventional or passive antisera (Figure 4B and D). It was clear from these results that the cascade antisera was far superior in its spectrum of antibody reactivity and, in fact, was comparable or superior in detection of ECPs to silver stain (Figure 4A). Although silver stain appeared to have an improved detection of certain low MW or basic proteins,...
