Product Description
A rigorously purified zinc-free material suitable for use in flow cytometry.
Acridine Orange hydrochloride hydrate dye has been used: • to stain intracellular acidic vesicles. • to measure lysosomal membrane permeability (LMP). • or autophagy detection. Fluorescent stain for nucleic acids in agarose and polyacrylamide gels. Has been used to study apoptosis in various cell culture and tissue models.
This compound belongs to the class of organic compounds known as acridines. These are organic compounds containing the acridine moiety, a linear tricyclic heterocycle which consists of two benzene rings joined by a pyridine ring.
