Product Description

Oxazole Blue Homodimer, also known as POPO™-1, is a blue-fluorescent, cell-impermeant, high-affinity carbocyanine dimeric nucleic acid stain. The dye is essentially non-fluorescent in the absence of nucleic acids but exhibits strong excitation/emission maxima 433/457 nm when bound to nucleic acids. In addition, the dye is non-cytotoxic and may be used for long-term monitoring of viability in cell cultures.

  • Dimeric nucleic acid stain
  • Cell-impermeant
  • λExEm (with DNA) = 433/457 nm
  • Supplied at 1 mM in DMSO
  • C41H54I4N6O2
  • MW: 1170
  • CAS number: 169454-15-3
