After protein electrophoresis on a Precise Tris-HEPES gel, the buffer front and proteins migrated only partly, and the bands were distorted. What could have gone wrong?

Please make sure that the Tris-HEPES SDS running buffer is used with these gels. The Precise Tris-HEPES gels are designed to be used with the Tris-HEPES SDS running buffer for optimal speed and resolution. We do not recommend using the Tris-Glycine SDS running buffer as this will result in poor migration and band resolution.

Do your precast protein gels contain SDS?

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.
