SmartGlow Safe Green Pre Stain, 1.0ml
Ideal for excitation of nucleic acids with UV or visible blue light transilluminators. Unlike EtBR, SmartGlow is non mutagenic and does not require special methods of disposal
SmartGlow PS (Pre Stain) can be used as a direct replacement for Ethidium Bromide in agarose and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The stain emits green fluorescence when bound to dsDNA, ssDNA and RNA. SmartGlow PS exhibits excitation peaks at 290nm and 490nm, allowing it to be used with UV and blue light.
Note: For all International Orders, the buyer will be solely responsible for the customs clearance, duty, and taxes imposed on the package.
Features:
- Replaces hazardous EtBr
- Excitation by UV or blue light
- Non-mutagenic, environmentally safe
Protocol for SmartGlow PS:
- Prepare 100ml of agarose or polyacrylamide solution.
- Add 5ul of SmartGlow PS stain to the gel solution before pouring gels.
- For enhanced results, add SmartGlow PS to the running buffer at a ratio of 2.5ul to 5ul per 100ml. Adding SmartGlow PS to the running buffer will result in increased sensitivity and better detection of small quantities of nucleic acid.
- After electrophoresis is complete, view the gel using a UV or blue light illuminator
