Save time, money, the environment...and get better gel results! SYBR Safe® is a DNA stain that fluoresces with a bright green color when excited with blue light. Like Ethidium Bromide, SYBR Safe® binds specifically to the DNA double helix. Howev - er, unlike Ethidium Bromide, SYBR Safe® has been engineered to be less mutagenic then Ethidium Bromide, making it much safer to use, particularly in the classroom.
• SAFE for the Biotechnology Classroom • More sensitive than ethidium bromide • Non-mutagenic • 10,000 X Concentrate for 750 mL • Volume: 80 µL
