Description

Acridine orange hydrochloride hydrate is a fluorescent dye that is used as a nucleic acid stain. It can be used to detect the presence of dna in cells. Acridine orange hydrochloride hydrate binds to DNA, intercalates into the double helix, and changes its fluorescence properties. This dye was first synthesized in 1927 by German chemists, but it was not until 1953 that the biological applications became clear. Acridine orange hydrochloride hydrate has been shown to bind to the nuclear DNA of human HL-60 cells and inhibit the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Acridine orange hydrochloride hydrate is also capable of inhibiting enzyme activities and reactions involving transfer reactions.
