Product Information

• Name: Acridine orange 10-nonylbromide
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Acridine orange 10-nonylbromide is a fluorescent dye that binds to DNA and RNA. It is used in biochemistry to stain cells and tissues for examination under a microscope. Acridine orange 10-nonylbromide has been shown to bind to the mitochondria in human white blood cells, thereby inhibiting mitochondrial membrane potential, which leads to cell lysis. Acridine orange 10-nonylbromide also has an index of high values with water vapor, making it an ideal candidate for use as an indicator in ecological studies. Acridine orange 10-nonylbromide can be used as a probe for the study of biological samples because it binds reversibly to nucleic acids, giving it chemical stability. Acridine orange 10-nonylbromide also has monoclonal antibodies that are specific for the physiological function of proteins, which makes it useful as a probe for biochemical research involving protein synthesis or degradation.
