Product details
Non-toxic and non-carcinogenic dyes for fluorescent staining of nucleic acids in agarose gels. Highly sensitive and applied just like ethidium bromide.
The ROTI®GelStain dyes are used as additives to the gel solution and the running buffer,partly also post-run staining is possible Both ROTI®GelStain dyes can be excited by UV light, additionally, ROTI®GelStain Red may be excited by blue light. Resulting signals may be detected by ethidium bromide broadband photo filters.
ROTI®GelStain ready-to-use, for electrophoresis
ROTI®GelStain is a versatile staining reagent for detection of all nucleic acids in agarose gels.
Suitable for staining of dsDNA, ssDNA and RNA.
- Green fluorescence
- Alternative for ethidium bromide, non-toxic, non-mutagen
- Nearly as sensitive as ethidium bromide, up to 1,5 ng/mm2 nucleic acid
- For use with common broad-band ethidium bromide photo filters
- Excitation via UV light (310 nm)
- Compatible with all usual down-stream applications

Amplicons of a mouse genotyping (left), and restriction digested DNA (right), respectively, separated in 2,5 and 1 % agarose ROTI®garose NEEO with ROTI®GelStain (5 µl / 100 ml agarose). Pictures were taken using standard ethidium bromide photo filters.

The dye may be used exactly in the same way as ethidium bromide - for staining in-gel, staining through running buffer, or post-run staining -, and may replace this toxic and potentially mutagen reagent completely.
ROTI®-GelStain detects up to 1,5 ng/mm2 nucleic acid, which is approx. 0,2 ng per band, and is, therefore, nearly as sensitive as ethidium bromide.
When bound to nucleic acids in agarose gels, ROTI®-GelStain emits a brightly green fluorescence that may be documented by all usual broadband ethidium bromide or SYBR® Green foto filters.
ROTI®-GelStain is compatible with all standard down-stream applications and has been successfully tested for use with gel extraction, ligation, transformation and transfection.
