How to prepare RNA loading dye without xylene cynol?

Arisha Arora @Arisha-Arora

I need to prepare a dye to mix with my RNA sample before running on gel.

The protocols obtained online contain xylene cyanol as a constituent. Is there a recipe without xylene cyanol?

Please help. Thanks in advance.
