Hello,

I heard that GelRed could be the best stain to replace BET. Seemingly, GelRed stain is more clean for the environnement. Being engaged in several causes related to the environnement, I'm really interested by this product if this information proves to be true.
Do you have informations,advices about it?

Many thanks in advance

hi,

I'm sensitive to environmental problems too and I'm using GelRed. It's a really good alternative to BET.
In my opinion, it has the advantages of beeing more sensitive and more stable than ethidium bromide and to be compatible with the instruments used withit (BET).
You should try it to make your own ;)

I wish you the best
