The Dominant Pro Violin E string is available in 4 options:

DP01 is the standard in the set. It has a core of carbon steel is tin-plated. A protective layer of nickel is placed between the outer coating of tin and the steel core in order to increase the corrosion resistance compared with conventional tin-plated strings. The string has a very good response, barely whistles, and is well-balanced in its brilliance and warmth. Despite its small diameter, the string sounds broad and brilliant even without applying much pressure.

DP01AU is Gold-plated. This gold-plated E-string generates a very warm, clear sound that simultaneously conveys brilliance. In addition, the string is extremely corrosion-resistant. In contrast to DP01, the sound is as clear as a bell and the individual sound colours can be clearly and individually distinguished.

DP01PT is platinum plated. Of all the Dominant Pro E strings, this one has the greatest projection capacity. It combines the clarity of the gold-plated ^NO.DP01AU with the response of the tin-plated DP01. Like ^.DP01AU, this string is also extremely corrosion-resistant, but has less of a tendency to whistle and offers more brilliance in comparison. Due to its outstanding projection capability and clarity, it can be unsuitable for sensitive ears. As a result of its larger diameter it offers more resistance to bow pressure and is also better suited to a very low string action.

^.DP01SN is Tin plated and has a smaller diameter and is therefore ideally suited to instruments with a normal or high string action. In comparison to the standard DP01, DP01SN is not underlaid with nickel and is therefore somewhat more susceptible to corrosion. Thanks to a thicker layer of tin, however, it sounds warmer than^.DP01 and much warmer than DP01AU and DP01PT. It also has the lowest string tension of all DOMINANT PRO^® E-strings, which means that almost no strain is exerted on the instruments and they can be greatly opened in terms of sound. This leads to a good bow response and also promotes the instrument’s radiance. Its low string tension means that it has the lowest resistance to bow pressure of all the DOMINANT PRO^® E-strings.

Available here as a single string or as part of the set here.
