EZ-Vision DNA dye as loading buffer provides a non mutagenic, environmentally friendly alternative to ethidium bromide for instantaneous fluorescent DNA band visualisation.

Supplier: VWR Chemicals

Gold-N-Gel RNA dye is compatible with standard protocols for denaturing electrophoresis of RNA fragments. Bands are immediately visible upon illumination with UV light. A standard ethidium bromide filter can be used for gel documentation.

Supplier: VWR Chemicals

These DNA loading dyes are used to load DNA samples to agarose or SDS DNA gels for gel electrophoresis.

Supplier: VWR Chemicals

EZ-Vision BlueLight is a sensitive, non mutagenic and environmentally safe fluorescent dye designed for gel staining.

Supplier: VWR Chemicals

This loading dye base is used for custom loading buffer preparation. It is a concentrated solution containing patent blue, bromophenol blue and amaranth tracking dyes, which migrate at approximately 4 000, 400 and 10 bp, on a 1% agarose gel, respectively.

Supplier: VWR Chemicals

Designed to optimise loading nucleic acids in agarose gels, the loading dye imparts colour to the sample to facilitate the loading process and increase the density of the sample to ensure efficient sample distribution into each well. The dye migrates independently from the sample, allowing estimation of the migration of nucleic acids.

Microscopy and staining reagents, J.T.Baker®, Cervix spray fixative

Supplier: G-Biosciences

A single step stain for the rapid detection of proteins resolved by PAGE. The stain is based on the interaction of zinc ions with polyacrylamide and proteins.

Supplier: Avantor

Mounting medium for coverslipping of slides.

Supplier: SIGMA ALDRICH MICROSCOPY

Differentiation solution comprises acidified ethanol or isopropanol that is used to decolourise hematoxylin stain. The duration of exposure to the solution determines the degree of decolourisation. Differentiation is a crucial step in hematoxylin-eosin staining to achieve the proper colour contrast necessary for visualisation, by selectively removing excess hematoxylin from the tissue section and leaving behind the desired staining intensity.

Supplier: SIGMA ALDRICH MICROSCOPY

For use with Osteo-bed bone embedding kit. Solvent for removal of plastic from sections prior to rehydration and staining. Most histochemical and immunohistochemistry staining protocols require the removal of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and rehydration of mounted sections for improved stain penetration and greater contrast.

Supplier: VWR Chemicals

Safemount Q Path® is a mounting medium, supplied in an PET bottle, which is compatible with Safesolv. It glues the coverglass to the slide and fixes the probe in position after staining.

VWR® Bouin tissue fixative solution.

Supplier: VWR Chemicals

When sectioning frozen tissue for rapid surgical biopsy diagnosis or for research (typically in Histochemistry), the tissue sample must be firmly attached to the microtome stage or chuck. Embedding material such as OCT are preferred as these also provide a supportive and protective aid to sectioning.
