Fixation: Immediately after electrophoresis, immerse the gel in
fixing solution for 30 minutes. This solution precipitates the
proteins and allows the SDS to diffuse out of the gel.
1
Staining: Discard the fixing solution. Stain the gel for 10 minutes
in staining solution. Cover the staining dish.
2
Washing: Rinse the gel once in distilled water.
3
Destaining: Destain the gel by changing the destaining solution
several times until the stained protein bands are clearly visible
against the clear background.

Preserving: Soak the destained gel in preserving solution for
30 minutes.
