Safe-Green™ is a new and safe nucleic acid stain for the visualization of nucleic acids in agarose and polyacrylamide gels. This dye eliminates the need for toxic Ethidium Bromide (EtBr, a potent mutagen), commonly used in gel electrophoresis. Features: Convenient: Safe-Green™ is provided as a 6X loading dye, and is mixed directly with samples before gel loading. Inert tracking dye is included to monitor gel progress. Easy to Use: View and document your results as you would with EtBr staining. Safe-Green™ can be excited with blue or UV light, and has maximum emission at 525 nm. Safe: Non-carcinogenic. Sensitive: Detect as little as 0.2 - 0.6 ng of DNA per gel band. Superior: EtBr is known to cause strand breaks and nicks in DNA. Using Safe-Green™ minimizes such damage, yielding higher transformation rates and lower mutation rates versus EtBr. For even better cloning results, use Safe-Green™ with blue light excitation.
