Overview

Product Describtion:

Quinacrine mustard dihydrochloride is a fluorescent acridine dye, also abbreviated as QM. In an aqueous solution, the chloroethyl groups rapidly lose chloride ions yielding aziridinium cations. These readily react with the carboxyl, thiol, and heterocyclic ring nitrogen groups of proteins and nucleic acids, or with other nucleophiles.


Product Application:

Quinacrine mustard dihydrochloride is used to stain metaphase chromosomes. Recent applications include the Q-banding of maize and karyotyping of fish. The dye is also used as a vital stain for

Note
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
