QuickBlue - never wash or destain again
Forget Instant Blue - our QuickBlue performs better:
- Complete staining in 15 minutes, no destaining needed
- Store at room temperature, re-use up to 3 times
- Contains no harmful chemicals or acids, can be disposed of down the sink after staining
- 100% compatible with mass spectrometry analysis
Comparison of QuickBlue and Instant Blue
Identical amounts of two proteins (TEV protease and T7 DNA polymerase) were loaded onto SDS-PAGE gels, run and stained either with QuickBlue or Instant Blue.

C: TEV protease 350 ng
D: TEV protease 116 ng
L1: 3 ul of PageRuler™ Plus Prestained Protein Ladder
E: T7 RNA Polymerase 3.5 ug
F: T7 RNA Polymerase 700 ng
G: T7 RNA Polymerase 350 ng
H : T7 RNA Polymerase 116 ng
L2 : 3 ul of AcuteBand Pre-Stained Protein Ladder (#LU5001-0500, LubioScience)

Customer testimonials
QuickBlue is an excellent product. Easy to use, very sensitive and I particularly like the fact that it can be stored at room temperature.
We have tested QuickBlue against Instant Blue and it performs just as well. It can be re-used multiple times, which is economical.
