About this item
GelRed is a sensitive, stable and environmentally safe fluorescent nucleic acid dyes are DNA gel loading buffers designed to replace the highly toxic ethidium bromide for one-step fluorescent staining and gel loading of DNA.
GelRed® and EtBr have virtually the same spectra, so you can directly replace EtBr with GelRed® without changing your existing imaging system. In addition, GelRed® is far more sensitive than EtBr, which cannot be used in DNA loading buffer to prestain DNA. GelRed® is compatible with downstream applications such as sequencing and cloning. GelRed® is efficiently removed from DNA by commercial gel extraction kits or by phenol/chloroform extraction and ethanol precipitation.
