For PCR you could try the dyes known to be compatible with Taq:
@article{Hoppe1992,
author = "B. L. Hoppe
and B. M. Conti-Tronconi
and R. M. Horton",
title = "Gel-loading dyes compatible with PCR",
journal = "BioTechniques",
volume = "12",
number = "5",
pages = "679-680",
comment = "Food Coloring dyes used in PCR tubes tartrazine
(Sigma T-0388) or Cresol Red (C-9877)",
year = "1992"}
