Replacement of Zinc sulphate in Zinc staining - by using zinc chloride (Oct/19/2010 )
Hi all,
I intend to do a Zinc staining for my SDS-PAGE. Based on the protocols, I found that Zinc sulphate was used. Since I do not have zinc sulphate in hand, is it possible for me to use zinc chloride as replacement?
Thank you very much.

Hi mdfenko,
Thanks for the info. I shall be searching for zinc acetate now...
it seems that any zinc ions are possible, as long as to maintain the alkaline conditions...
