Product Information
| Description: | DRAQ5 is a novel, cell-permeable, far-red fluorescent DNA probe whose fluorescence reflects cellular DNA content. It can be excited at 647 nm (near Ex) and produces a fluorescence spectrum extending from 665 nm to beyond 780 nm. In addition, DRAQ5 can be used in combination with FITC- and RPE-labeled antibodies without fluorescence compensation. |
| Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
