CYTO-16 *equivalent to SYTO 16*
Product key features
- CYTO 16 is virtually the same as SYTO 16
- Cell-permeable for live mammalian cells and bacteria
- Extremely large fluorescence enhancement when bound to nucleic acids
Product description
CYTO 16 is manufactured by AAT Bioquest to replace SYTO 16 Green Nucleic Acid Stain. They have virtually the same chemical and biological properties. CYTO 16 is a cell-permeant nucleic acid stain that exhibits bright, green fluorescence upon binding to nucleic acids. The CYTO 16 dye can be used to stain RNA (Ex/Em ~ 494/525 nm) and DNA (Ex/Em ~ 488/518 nm) in both live and dead eukaryotic cells, as well as in Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Eukaryotic cells incubated with SYTO 16 dye generally show cytoplasmic or mitochondrial staining, as well as nuclear staining.
