About PhenoVue 512 Nucleic Acid Stain – complexed with nucleic acids

PhenoVue™ 512 nucleic acid stain is a cell permeable organic molecule which binds nucleic acids. It displays a higher fluorescence intensity when complexed with RNA compared to DNA. PhenoVue 512 nucleic acid stain concentrates into RNA enriched organelles, such as the membraneless organelles (MLOs), nucleoli, found in the nuclei of mammalian cells. Therefore, PhenoVue 512 nucleic acid stain is the dye of choice for nucleoli staining.
