Recommended Use
Xylene Cyanol FF is used as a tracking dye to monitor the progress of electrophoretic separation. This tracking dye usually migrates with DNA molecules around 5 kb. Therefore, if you are monitoring the progress of longer runs, Xylene Cyanol FF is the tracking dye of choice.

Please note: Tracking dyes may interfere with the ability to visualize the fragments that comigrate with them.

Storage
IBI Xylene Cyanol FF should be stored protected from moisture at room temperature. Keep tightly sealed.

Warning
Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Avoid breathing dust. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling. See Material Safety Data Sheet for additional information.
