ExcelDye 6x DNA Loading Dye, Orange

ExcelDye 6x DNA Loading Dye (Orange) is a pre-mixed buffer for tracking DNA samples during electrophoresis on agarose or polyacrylamide gels. It contains one dye (Orange G) for tracking the DNA migration.

This dye migrates at approximately 30 bp on a standard 2% TAE agarose gel (50 bp on 1% TAE agarose gel). The included glycerol keeps the DNA at the bottom of the well and the presence of EDTA chelates divalent metal ions to prevent the process of metal-dependent nuclease.
