GelRed\u00ae is far more sensitive than EB without requiring a destaining step. GelRed\u00ae and EB have virtually the same spectra, so you can directly replace EB with GelRed\u00ae without changing your existing imaging system.\u00a0\u00a0GelRed\u00ae can be used to stain dsDNA, ssDNA or RNA in agarose gels via either precast or post gel staining. GelRed\u00ae can also be used to stain dsDNA, ssDNA or RNA in polyacrylamide gels via post gel staining. GelRed\u00ae is also compatible with downstream DNA manipulations such as restriction digest, sequencing, and cloning. \u00a0\u00a0A series of safety tests have confirmed that GelRed\u00ae is noncytotoxic, nonmutagenic and nonhazardous at concentrations well above the working concentrations used in gel staining. As a result, working strength GelRed\u00ae can be safely disposed of down the drain or in regular trash, providing convenience and reducing cost in waste disposal. \u00a0\u00a0GelRed\u00ae 3X in water (catalog no. 41001) is ready-to-use for post-electrophoresis gel staining, and is supplied in a 4L Cubitainer\u00ae. Biotium also offers GelRed\u00ae 10,000X in water (catalog no. 41003) and GelRed\u00ae 10,000X in DMSO (catalog no. 41002). GelRed\u00ae in water is a newer, safer formulation and our recommended format. We continue to offer GelRed\u00ae in DMSO for established users who do not wish to alter their protocols.\u00a0\u00a0Also see GelGreen\u00ae Nucleic Acid Gel Stain, a safer replacement for SYBR\u00ae gel stains, which is compatible with visible blue light excitation.\u00a0\u00a0<strong>FEATURES<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n<ul>\u00a0 <\/p>\n<li><strong> Safer than EB<\/strong>: Shown by the Ames test and other tests to be nonmutagenic and noncytotoxic<\/li>\n<p>\u00a0 <\/p>\n<li><strong> Easy disposal<\/strong>: Passed environmental safety tests for direct disposal down the drain or in regular trash<\/li>\n<p>\u00a0 <\/p>\n<li><strong>Ultra-sensitive<\/strong>: Much more sensitive than EtBr and SYBR\u00ae Safe<\/li>\n<p>\u00a0 <\/p>\n<li><strong>Extremely stable<\/strong>: Available in water, stable at room temperature for long-term storage and microwavable<\/li>\n<p>\u00a0 <\/p>\n<li><strong>Simple to use<\/strong>: Very simple procedures for precast or post-electrophoresis gel staining<\/li>\n<p>\u00a0 <\/p>\n<li><strong>Compatible with a standard UV transilluminator <\/strong>: Replaces EtBr with no optical setting change<\/li>\n<p>\u00a0 <\/p>\n<li><strong> Compatible with downstream applications <\/strong>: Gel purification, restriction digest, sequencing and cloning<\/li>\n<p>\u00a0<\/ul>\n<p>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0GelRed\u00ae and its uses are covered by granted and\/or pending US and International patents.
