Gel loading dye, orange (6X)

Oange loading dye (6X) is used to prepare DNA markers and samples for loading on agarose or polyacrylamide gels. Ideal for conventional DNA electrophoresis.

• Two-colour tracking of DNA migration during DNA electrophoresis
• No DNA masking during gel exposure to UV light
• EDTA binds divalent metal ions and inhibits metal dependent nucleases

Oange loading dye (6X) contains two different dyes (xylene cyanol FF and orange G) for visual tracking of DNA migration during electrophoresis. The presence of glycerol ensures that the DNA in the ladder and sample forms a layer at the bottom of the well. The EDTA included in the solutions binds divalent metal ions and inhibits metal-dependent nucleases.

Applications include analysis of small DNA molecules and preparation of DNA ladders, markers, and samples for loading on agarose or polyacrylamide gels.
