Comparative analysis of DNA detection sensitivity using agarose gels pre-stained with MIDORIGreen dyes and ethidium bromide

18 Sept 2024

NIPPON Genetics EUROPE compares the DNA detection sensitivity of agarose gels pre-stained with two different nucleic acid dyes, MIDORIGreen Advance (MGA) and MIDORIGreen Xtra (MGX), against the traditional dye, ethidium bromide (EtBr). MGA and MGX are nucleic acid staining reagents designed to offer a safer alternative to EtBr, a commonly used but potentially hazardous dye. Explore how Blue/Green LED technology is used to determine whether MGA and MGX can serve as safe and effective alternatives to EtBr.
