Title: Analysis of DNA denaturation. Author: Darzynkiewicz Z, Juan G. Journal: Curr Protoc Cytom; 2001 May; Chapter 7():Unit 7.8. PubMed ID: 18770735. Abstract: This unit provides a detailed method for evaluating in situ DNA denaturation by flow cytometry. The principal technique is based upon the metachromatic properties of acridine orange. This technique has a number of advantages over traditional biochemical methods, but requires very precise methodology; the result is excellent clarity and differentiation between single-stranded and double-stranded DNA. This unit provides full details on the correct use of acridine orange together with an excellent discussion of the pitfalls and problems.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
