IBIAN-TGel, Non-toxic stain for agarose gels. This product replaces ethidium bromide.
Non-toxic and highly sensitive staining for visualizing DNA in agarose or acrylamide gels.
Sensitivity comparable to SYBR ™ Safe Gel Stain.
Supplied as a 10,000X concentrate in DMSO.
Increases sensitivity by reducing nonspecific background fluorescence.
IBIAN®-TGel Staining Solution is a safe nucleic acid stain for the visualization of nucleic acids in agarose and polyacrylamide gels. This dye eliminates the need for toxic ethidium bromide (EtBr, a potent mutagen), commonly used in gel electrophoresis. While EtBr requires UV light for its detection, IBIAN®-TGel can also use UV light if desired, but it can also be detected with blue light, which does not cause skin or DNA damage.
