Helixyte™ Green
10,000X Aqueous PCR Solution
Helixyte™ Green is manufactured by AAT Bioquest, and it has the same chemical structure of SYBR® Green (SYBR® is the trademark of ThermoFisher). Helixyte™ Green is an excellent nucleic acid sensor. The dye is essentially nonfluorescent, but becomes highly fluorescent upon binding to dsDNA. Helixyte™ Green is much less mutagenic and toxic than ethidium bromide. It has the same spectral properties to those of PicoGreen®, thus a great replacement to PicoGreen® (PicoGreen® is the trademark of Invitrogen). Helixyte™ Green is one of the most sensitive stains available for detecting double-stranded DNA (dsDNA). It has much greater sensitivity for dsDNA, thus especially useful for assays where the presence of contaminating RNA or ssDNA might obscure results. Helixyte™ Green dye has excitation and emission spectra identical to that of PicoGreen®, making the dye readily compatible with instrument settings of PicoGreen® or SYBR® Green. This particular Helixyte™ Green formulation is optimized for quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) applications.
Quantitative PCR results targeting GAPDH with an input of 100 ng–0.00001 ng cDNA was performed using Helixyte™ Green *10,000X Aqueous PCR Solution* (Cat No. 17592) and a Fast Advanced Master Mix on an Applied Biosystems® 7500 FAST Real-Time PCR System.
