Helixyte Green(TM) dsDNA Quantifying Reagent

Ex: 501 nm. Em: 520 nm. Helixyte(TM) Green is an excellent nucleic acid sensor that exhibits large fluorescence enhancement upon binding to dsDNA. It has the same spectral properties to those of PicoGreen(R), thus a great replacement to PicoGreen(R) (PicoGreen(R) is the trademark of Invitrogen). It is one of the most sensitive stains available for quantifying DNA in solutions. Using the Helixyte(TM)(TM) Green, you can selectively detect as little as 25 pg/ml of dsDNA in the presence of ssDNA, RNA, and free nucleotides. The assay is linear over three orders of magnitude and has little sequence dependence, allowing you to accurately measure DNA from many sources, including genomic DNA, viral DNA, miniprep DNA, or PCR amplification products.
