1. What is a Blue Light Transilluminator?
A Blue Light Transilluminator is a device used in laboratories to visualize nucleic acids, such as DNA or RNA, that have been stained with fluorescent dyes. It uses blue light (around 470 nm) to excite the dyes, causing them to fluoresce for easy visualization without the harmful UV radiation associated with traditional transilluminators.
2. What types of samples can be visualized with a Blue Light Transilluminator?
A Blue Light Transilluminator is primarily used for visualizing DNA, RNA, and protein gels that have been stained with fluorescent dyes such as SYBR Green, GelRed, Ethidium Bromide, and other safe alternatives.
3. What kind of stains work best with the Blue Light Transilluminator?
Common stains compatible with our Blue Light Transilluminator include: SYBR Green, GelRed, Ethidium Bromide (if safely used in conjunction with the proper protocols), Safe DNA dyes such as SYBR Safe, Coomassie Brilliant Blue (for protein gels).
4. What are the primary applications of a Blue Light Transilluminator?
A Blue Light Transilluminator is commonly used in molecular biology to visualize DNA, RNA, or protein gels stained with fluorescent dyes such as SYBR Green or GelRed. In forensics, it helps detect bodily fluids or other trace substances that fluoresce under blue light, and in medical diagnostics, it is used for certain dermatological or clinical tests that require fluorescence visualization.
5. How to use a Blue Light Transilluminator?
To use our Blue Light Transilluminator, begin by placing your gel or sample on the illuminated platform of the device. Once the sample is properly positioned, switch on the transilluminator; the emitted blue light will activate any fluorescent dyes or markers present in the sample, causing them to fluoresce.
