HOE-33187 Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Description

HOE 33187 is one of Hoechst stains which are Bis-benzimides used as blue fluorescent dyes to stain DNA.

Uses

HOE 33187 is a marker dye in Hoechst series. Hoechst is A live nuclear marker dye. Hoechst binds to the grooves in the DNA double strand, which tends to be A/ T-rich DNA strand. Although it binds to all nucleic acids, the A/ T-rich double strand DNA significantly enhances fluorescence intensity Therefore,Hoechst dye can be used for living cell labeling. The fluorescence intensity of Hoechst dye increases with the increase of pH of solution[1].
