Ethidium bromide has been a widely used DNA stain for many years, yet it poses significant health risks, being harmful if ingested and highly toxic if inhaled. In its powdered form, it can irritate the eyes and upper respiratory tract, and research has indicated its mutagenic properties through various in vitro tests, alongside its classification as an aquatic toxin. In response to these concerns, our product, ETBR #ALT Solution Stain, has undergone thorough evaluations in toxicity and mutagenicity assays, proving to be a safer alternative. ETBR #ALT Solution Stain exhibited no toxicity or mortality in acute oral toxicity tests, making it an excellent choice for laboratories aiming to minimize health and environmental risks while effectively staining DNA.
