About this item
Midori Green Advance — Safe DNA Stain, a safe alternative to ethidium bromide
- Compatible with UV transilluminators
- Compatible with blue LED illuminators
MIDORI Green Advance can stain single- and double-stranded nucleic acids with sensitivity similar to that of ethidum bromide(EtBr). Like EtBr, Midori Green Advance is added directly to molten agarose during the gel pouring step. This makes it a no-brainer as a drop-in replacement for your lab’s current protocols. Not only can you use your existing UV transilluminator and filter sets — MIDORI Green Advance works best when matched with blue LED-, or in particular, Blue/Green LED-based illuminators and gel documentation systems. These environmentally-friendly light tables are the perfect complement for any MIDORI Green stain, as you can work shield-less and goggle-less when excising bands or imaging migration. And because blue or green light does not cross-link DNA, you never need to worry about damaging DNA during cloning and photographing sessions.
MIDORI Green Advance shows a very high sensitivity even for small DNA fragments. The dilution factor of MIDORI Green Advance can be as high as 1:25000. Hence, 4 μL to 6 μL are enough for a 100 mL agarose gel, resulting in about 17 to 25 liters of stained agarose gels per 1 mL tube of MIDORI Green Advance.
