Acridine Orange (hydrochloride)
Acridine Orange hydrochloride is a cell-penetrable nucleic acid-selective fluorescent dye. Acridine Orange hydrochloride produces orange fluorescence when it binds to ssDNA or RNA, and green fluorescence when it binds to dsDNA (Ex: 488 nM; Em: green fluorescence at 530 nm, orange fluorescence at 640 nm) [1][2][3].
