Ethidium bromide

A 10mg/ml solution of Ethidium Bromide in specially prepared deionized water. Ethidium bromide solution is a fluorescent stain for visualising nucleic acids in solution or in electrophoresis gels.


At a concentration of 0,5 μg/ml, ethidium bromide is useful in agarose or acrylamide gels for band detection. It is used to detect as little as 10 ng of nucleic acid. At higher concentrations (0,5 - 1,0 μg/ml), it may be used to facilitate purification of DNA in a caesium chloride gradient.
