®GelRed

GelRed is a nucleic acid stain commonly used in molecular biology and biochemistry research. It is utilized for visualizing nucleic acids in agarose gel electrophoresis. GelRed is known for its high sensitivity and low mutagenicity, making it a popular choice for researchers working with DNA and RNA. This fluorescent dye is designed to be compatible with both UV and blue light excitation, allowing for flexibility in imaging systems. GelRed is also appreciated for its stability and resistance to photobleaching, ensuring reliable and long-lasting results in nucleic acid visualization.

One of the key advantages of GelRed is its exceptional sensitivity, enabling the detection of even trace amounts of nucleic acids in agarose gels. This makes it a valuable tool for researchers working with limited sample quantities or low-concentration nucleic acid samples. Furthermore, GelRed’s low mutagenicity profile distinguishes it as a safer alternative to other nucleic acid stains, minimizing potential risks to researchers and the environment. Its compatibility with various imaging systems contribute to its widespread use in molecular biology and biochemistry laboratories.
