ViSafe Red Gel Stain (10000X in water)
Description
ViSafe Red Gel Stain is a stable, sensitive and environmentally safe fluorescent nucleic acid dye for staining double stranded DNA (dsDNA), single stranded DNA (ssDNA) or RNA in agarose gels or polyacrylamide gels.
ViSafe Red Gel Stain is designed to replace the highly toxic ethidium bromide (EtBr). Both red gel stain and EtBr have the same spectra, so the red gel stain able to replace the EtBr without changing existing imaging system. The dye is confirmed by Ames test results that it is impenetrable to latex gloves and cell membranes. By using the suggested working concentrations in gel staining, the red gel stain is proven unable to cross cell membranes; and it is noncytotoxic and nonmutagenic at working concentrations.
Features
Safer
The red gel stain is non cytotoxic & non mutagenic shown by Ames tests.
Higher sensitivity
More sensitive compared to EtBr or Viva SybrGreen Nucleic Acid Stain.
Extremely stable
Stable at room temperature for long-term storage.Stable to be microwaved or being heated. The working solution is stable at room temperature when kept in dark.
Wide application
Suitable to stain dsDNA, ssDNA and RNA. Suitable to use in agarose gel or polyacrylamide gel. Compatible with downstream applications, such as gel recovery & cloning.
Easy staining protocols
Easy precast gel staining & post-staining procedures.
Compatible with most imaging system
Gel can be viewed with standard UV transilluminator, visible light gel reader, or other gel imaging system.
