Ponceau S is not recommended for gel staining; it is advised only for use with membranes. Using Ponceau S in acetic acid may precipitate and fix the proteins in the gel, which is not advisable if a protein transfer to a membrane is planned for a western blot.

General description
Ponceau S is the sodium salt of a diazo dye.[1] Ponceau S solution is a suitable reagent for use in electrophoresis studies. The Ponceau S stain comes ready-to-use and is designed for rapid (5 min) staining of protein bands on nitrocellulose or PVDF membranes (Western blots) and also for staining protein on cellulose acetate membranes. It may be employed as stain for the purified fibrinolytic enzyme (CK) for the analysis of N-terminal amino acid sequence of the first 14 residues of CK by a protein sequencer. Ponceau S staining on nitrocellulose and PVDF is reversible by washing the stained membrane with 0.1M NaOH for 1 minute. The stained and destained membrane can then be immunologically detected (Western blotting).[1] A product information sheet is supplied which includes the staining procedure for cellulose acetate, nitrocellulose, and PVDF.

Is it practical to stain protein gels directly with Ponceau S without transferring to membranes in order to assess the amount of protein and number of bands in a protein sample? Is there a direct gel staining protocol available for this purpose?
