01 Why Eco-Fluors

46 years of toxic stains.Time for a new class.

Molecular biology has long relied on toxic fluorophores to visualise DNA, RNA, proteins, chromosomes and live cells. Azooka Eco-Fluors are patented, food-grade safe fluorescent molecules that use minor-groove binding. They label, detect and quantify nucleic acids without distorting DNA.

A
tinto rang™
Quantification kits for Qubit™ assays, plus PCR/qPCR and LAMP mixes. Unlike EtBr and SYBR, tinto rang does not inhibit PCR, even at high concentrations.
B
ANO cell stains
Live-cell imaging with up to 48 hours of photostability, with no anti-photobleaching media or antifade agents.
C
Kalam Fluor
A protein gel stain that gives green fluorescent bands under UV, an equal alternative to Coomassie Brilliant Blue R-250.
