Safe-Green™
1.0 ml
SafeView™ DNA Stains

Description:    
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 verses EtBr. For even better cloning results use Safe-Green™ with blue light excitation.
