Application Area:

Agarose gel stain

This product is a wonderful replacement for ethidium bromide. It is much safer and much more sensitive. I have used it for the past 10 years, and remain a faithful customer. It works well whether you add it to the agarose, the running buffer, or post stain. As a post stain, it remains useful for one month, when store in the dark. I highly recommend this product.
