The Dark Reader® Blue Light Transilluminator is the ideal solution for excitation of DNA/RNA gels when using Safe Stains or even ethidium bromide. Because the Dark Reader uses blue light as the excitation source, you and your samples are not subjected to dangerous ultraviolet radiation that originates from traditional UV transilluminators. These transilluminators are ideal for researchers who are cloning DNA, as their samples will not be degraded by harmful UV lights.

Dark Reader blue light transilluminators can be used for viewing a wide range of fluorescent samples including SYBR Green, Gel Star, Gel Green, SYPRO Ruby, Pro Q Diamond, fluorescein and various GFPs.

An amber screen that fits exactly over the blue surface is included. The amber screen absorbs the blue excitation light, after it has illuminated the sample, thereby allowing the user(s) to clearly see the fluorescence. The amber screen can also be used as a camera filter.
