Safe Green (RM19008)

Safe Green is a safe, highly sensitive, and highly stable fluorescent nucleic acid stain, which is compatible with commonly used electrophoresis buffer solutions such as TAE, TBE, and RRB (rapid electrophoresis buffer), and can replace unsafe stains such as ethidium bromide (EB). Safe Green has a unique non-mutagenic molecular structure that is preferred for both user safety and ease of disposal. It can be reliably used to detect and size nucleic acid samples during gel electrophoresis without affecting the expected migration of DNA bands, unlike alternative nontoxic nucleic acid stains that can generate distortion of large molecular weight bands. The excitation wavelength for Safe Green is 488 nm, allowing for direct observation with blue light for ease of sample detection. Safe Green can also be visualized using ultraviolet light in UV gel imaging systems with a SYBR Green filter.
