GelGreen® is far more sensitive than SYBR® Safe. Unlike SYBR® dyes, which are known to be unstable, GelGreen® is very stable, both hydrolytically and thermally. GelGreen® is compatible with a 254 nm UV transilluminator, and can be imaged using a SYBR® Green or GelStar® filter. It also can be used with visible blue light excitation imagers (blue LED light box or Dark Reader®). With blue light illuminators, researchers can avoid exposure to UV irradiation for themselves and their DNA samples, for a safer work environment and higher cloning efficiency.
• Non-mutagenic, for safer handling and easy disposal
• Much more sensitive than EtBr, SYBR® Safe, and others
• Extremely stable for storage at room temperature & microwaving in agarose
• Simple precast or post-electrophoresis gel staining
• Use with UV transilluminator or blue light gel reader
• Compatible with downstream gel purification, restriction digest, sequencing and cloning
