General description

Convenient visualization of β-gal in cells or tissues
The BetaBlue Staining Kit provides direct visualization of β-galactosidase reporter expression in isolated cells, tissues, or intact organisms. The kit contains sufficient reagents for 100 staining reactions and includes solutions of the substrate X-Gal (5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-β-D-galactopyranoside) and Reaction Buffer optimized for rapid, sensitive histochemical staining with minimal background. The exceptional staining seen with the BetaBlue Staining Kit enables quick, accurate determination of transfection efficiencies, assessment of stable cell line generation, and transgene expression in tissue slices or whole mounts of transgenic animals.
