Description
ROTI®GelStain is a ready-to-use gel stain supplied at 20 000× concentration for nucleic acid staining in electrophoresis workflows. The highly concentrated liquid format allows economical dilution into staining baths according to laboratory protocols, supporting clear band visualisation after gel separation. Physical data include a density of about 1 g/cm³ and a boiling point near 100 °C, consistent with aqueous bench handling. This stain from manufacturer Carl ROTH belongs to a dedicated gel-staining range for life-science electrophoresis. Ready-to-use presentation simplifies preparation compared with multi-component formulations and helps standardise staining steps across multiple gels. Research, diagnostic-support and teaching laboratories can integrate the concentrate into established agarose and related gel procedures wherever a defined, high-fold DNA gel stain is required for routine visualisation work.
This article is part of Histology reagents & consumables, in Microscopy & histology.

Questions about ROTI®GelStain, 20 000x, ready-to-use, 1 ml, plastic
What is this article?
ROTI®GelStain, 20 000x, ready-to-use, 1 ml, plastic is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Histology reagents & consumables, inside Microscopy & histology, in Lab instruments.
Histology reagents are the fixatives, the solvents, the paraffins and the stains that turn a tissue into a readable section. The stain and the tissue, not the bottle size alone, choose the reagent. Many of these liquids are flammable or toxic and travel under dangerous-goods rules.
A light microscope forms an image with glass lenses and transmitted or reflected light. A stereo microscope is the lower-magnification instrument for dissecting and for looking at a surface. Fluorescence needs a light source and filters matched to the dye. Histology is the preparation that makes a tissue readable: fixation, a cassette, a section, a stain. The objective's magnification and numerical aperture decide the resolution. The slide and the cover glass decide whether the section sits in the focal plane. Stains and dyes as substances are identified on PubChem. Papers on the methods are on PubMed.
