Bromophenol Blue 0.04%, Buy now Ready to use Indicator solution for reliable and Reproducible results from Tristains indicators.
Bromophenol Blue is an artificial dye that is part of the triphenylmethane dye. It forms as black purple crystalline solid and the saturated aqueous solution is deep purple in color. Bromophenol Blue is commonly known as a pH indicator as it has great solubility in water and color change at particular pH intervals. The indicator turns yellow at a pH value of below 3, and changes to blue at a pH value of above 4.6 and this color remains at neutral conditions. Bromophenol Blue is typically applied in studies of gel electrophoresis in agarose or polyacrylamide gels with nucleic acids or proteins to enable the researcher to trace the migration of the sample visually.
Applications

- Usually added to loading dye to visualize the movement of samples in a protein gel electrophoresis application.
- Used in nucleic acid gel electrophoresis to track the movement of DNA or RNA fragments.
- Applied as a laboratory stain on a broad variety of materials.
Key features
- Displays a distinct and acute color change between yellow and blue in the corresponding pH.
- Works with other aqueous based systems.
- Offers a stable ready to use solution that saves preparation time and enhances labor efficiency.
- Can be used in biological studies, buffer preparation and loading gels.
