Increased sensitivity compared to ethidium bromide

SafeView™ Classic has increased sensitivity compared to ethidium bromide. Two-fold serial dilution of abm’s 1kb Plus Opti-DNA Marker (Cat. No. G248) was visualized using SafeView™ Classic and ethidium bromide under the same conditions (1% agarose gel in TAE Buffer, SafeViewER™ Imager).

SafeView™ Classic is free of DNA migration issues that plague other dyes. Two-fold serial dilution of abm’s 1kb Plus Opti-DNA Marker (Cat. No. G248) was visualized using SafeView™ Classic on a 1% agarose gel in TAE Buffer with the SafeViewER™ Imager.
