Beneficial Bio 6X DNA Loading Dye is a premixed loading buffer used to prepare samples for
loading onto agarose and polyacrylamide gels. It contains bromophenol blue and xylene
cyanol dyes for visual tracking of DNA during electrophoresis. The trehalose ensures that
DNA forms a layer at the bottom of the well and facilitates sample loading. The EDTA
chelates metal ions and stops metal-dependent enzymatic reactions. The solution contains
SDS which results in sharper bands by removing restriction enzymes from DNA.
Double tracking: Xylene cyanol, Bromophenol blue
No interaction with bands during gel exposure to UV or Blue light
Inhibits metal-dependent nucleases (EDTA)
Preparation of DNA ladders, markers, and samples for loading on agarose or polyacrylamide
