YODi-1 (Oxazole Yellow Homodimer, YOYO®-1, CAS: 143413-85-8) is a green-fluorescent nucleic acid stain. It binds strongly to double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) and becomes highly fluorescent upon binding, making it ideal for sensitive DNA detection in molecular biology.
Key Features:
- High DNA Affinity: Binds specifically to dsDNA, ensuring strong and reliable staining.
- Bright Fluorescence: Shows over 1,000-fold fluorescence enhancement when bound to DNA, providing strong signals with minimal background noise.
Applications:
- Fluorescence Microscopy: Stains nucleic acids on slides, arrays, and for chromosome visualization.
- DNA Analysis: Supports single-molecule DNA studies, helping with genomic and molecular biology research.
Handling and Storage:
- Solubility: Dissolves in DMSO or DMF for easy application.
- Storage: Keep at -20°C, away from light, to preserve stability and performance.
YODi-1’s strong binding and intense fluorescence make it a powerful tool for DNA staining and molecular analysis in life sciences research.
