Preparation of the SDS-Gel

  • prepare the separating gel (for 2 gels):
    Acrylamide percentage 12%
    H2O 3.2 ml
    Acrylamide/Bis-acrylamide(30%/0.8% w/v) 4 ml
    1.5M Tris(pH=8.8) 2.6 ml
    10% (w/v)SDS 0.1 ml
    10% (w/v) ammonium persulfate (APS) 100 μl
    TEMED 10 μl
  • fill the gel into the casting frames
  • cover gel with isopropanol
  • wait for 20-30min to let it gelate
  • prepare the stacking gel (for two gels):
    Acrylamide percentage 5%
    H2O 2.975 ml
    0.5 M Tris-HCl, pH 6.8 1.25 ml
    10% (w/v) SDS 0.05
    Acrylamide/Bis-acrylamide(30%/0.8% w/v) 0.67 ml
    10% (w/v) ammonium persulfate (APS) 0.05 ml
    TEMED 0.005 ml
  • discard isopropanol and fill in the stacking gel
  • insert the comb without trapping air under the teeth
  • wait for 20-30min to let it gelate
  • set the cell into the cell buffer dam, take out the comb and pour the running buffer into the chamber

Preparation of Samples

  • mix samples (OD = 1.0) with 100 μl sample buffer (1x):
  • denaturate samples at 95°C for 10 minutes
  • load 10 μl sample-solution into wells
