Gelite™ Red Nucleic Acid Gel Stain
Replaced by #17706
Gelite™ Red is the most recent addition to our Gelite™ nucleic acid gel stain family. Now we have a complete family of multicolor gel stains for detecting nucleic acids in gels. Gelite™ Red is an extremely sensitive nucleic acid gel stain for detecting DNA in gels using a standard 300 nm UV transilluminator and Polaroid 667 black-and-white print film. Under the same conditions it is more sensitive than the popular SYBR® Gold gel stain. This remarkable sensitivity can be attributed to a combination of unique dye characteristics of Gelite™ Red. Because the nucleic acid“bound Gelite™ Red dye exhibits excitation maxima close to 488 nm and ~300 nm (the emission maximum is ~610 nm), it is compatible with a wide variety of instrumentation, ranging from UV epi- and transilluminators and blue-light transilluminators, to mercury-arc lamp“ and argon-ion laser“based gel scanners. Our Gelite™ Red is a superior alternative to SYBR® Gold, SYBR® Safe and Ethidium Bromide. It provides a convenient solution for staining nucleic acid samples in gels.
Comparison of Gelite™ Red and SYBR™ Gold  in post  gel staining. 1 kb Plus DNA Ladder (200ng and 100ng per lane ) were subjected to electrophoresis in 0.9% agarose in 1 x TAE buffer. The gels were subsequently stained with a 1x  Gelite™ Red or SYBR™ Gold in 1x TAE for 30 minutes and photographed using ChemiDoc™ MP Imager with an EtBr filter.
