DBCO-Cy3 (DBCO-Sulfo-Cy3) is a derivative of the Cyanine3 fluorophore, an orange fluorescent dye that is pH insensitive from pH 4-10, with an excitation maximum of 555 nm and an emission maximum of 580 nm.
1) Non-toxicity: belong to flower-stem dye, easy to biodegrade, no carcinogenic toxicity. 2) High sensitivity: at least 100pg ssDNA or RNA can be detected, which is 25 ~ 100 times higher than EB staining. 3) High SIGNal-to-noise ratio: the sample fluorescence signal is strong, while the background signal is low. 4) Simple operation: like EB, the dye does not degrade in the prefabricated gel and electrophoresis process;The dyeing process after electrophoresis takes only 30 minutes without decoloring or washing, and can be observed directly with ultraviolet gel transmission or visible light transmission.
