Midori Green Advance

MIDORI Green Advance

MIDORI Green Advance is a safe alternative to the traditional nucleic acid stain ethidium bromide. It is a non-carcinogenic and less mutagenic dye for detecting dsDNA, ssDNA and RNA in agarose gels with a very high sensitivity. MIDORI Green Advance can utilize with UV light or with our innovative Blue/Green LED technology. 

Safe alternative to ethidium bromide

MIDORI Green Advance is a non-carcinogenic dye. Optimised for a brighter signal when excited by UV-light or Blue/Green light. It has the advantages, such as being non-carcinogenic and
having an excellent signal-to-noise ratio.

MIDORI Green Advance shows a very high sensitivity even for small DNA fragments. The dilution factor of MIDORI Green  Advance can be as high as 1:25000. Hence, 4-6 μL are enough for the staining of a 100 mL agarose gel, resulting in ~17 to 25 liters of stained agarose gels.

Proven safety

It is essential for a good replacement of the mutagenic DNA stain ethidium Bromide to deliver strong signals. MIDORI Green Advance delivers signals with a comparable intensity. Nonetheless, the safety of the user must not be compromised. Hence, several tests were performed with MIDORI Green Advance and according to those tests, MIDORI^Green Advance is safe.

• Ames-Test
• Acute Oral Toxicity Test
• Mouse Bone Marrow Micronucleus Test
• Chromosome Aberration Test
• Latex and Nitrile Gloves Penetration
