DNA/RNA Dyes & Nuclear Stains
For nuclear staining of live cells, we offer NucSpot® Live stains available in green or far-red, and RedDot™1, a far-red nuclear stain.
For nuclear staining of fixed cells, see NucSpot® 470, a green nuclear stain, and RedDot™2, a far-red nuclear dye.
Biotium offers a series of asymmetric cyanine dyes, equivalent to SYBR® Green and others: Thiazole Green (aka SYBR® Green I), Thiazole Orange, Thiazole Orange Homodimer (aka TOTO®-1), Thiazole Orange Iodide (aka TO-PRO®-1), Oxazole Yellow (aka YO-PRO®-1), Thiazole Red (aka TO-PRO®-3), and Thiazole Red Homodimer (aka TOTO®-3).
Ethidium Homodimer III (EthD-III) is a far-red dead-cell stain, also sold together with a live cell stain.
We also offer classical nuclear stains such as DAPI, Hoechst, Propidium Iodide (PI), 7-AAD, and Acridine Orange (AO).
NucSpot® Live Cell Nuclear Stains
NucSpot® Live Cell Nuclear Stains are cell-membrane permeable DNA dyes that specifically stains nuclei in live or fixed cells. They have excellent specificity for DNA without the need for a wash step, and they have low toxicity for live cell imaging.
