There are limited options to quantify and characterize amyloid species from biological samples in a simple fashion. Thioflavin T (ThT) has now been used for decades to stain amyloid fibrils but to our knowledge we were the first to use it in-gel. Thioflavin T in-gel stain is convenient as it is fast, inexpensive, available to most labs, compatible with other fluorescent stains and downstream analyses such as mass spectrometry (MS).
