The Acridine Orange HCl (CAS Number 65-61-2) is a cell-permeable, highly effective, and a popular fluorescent dye employed in staining nucleic acids. With a molecular formula of C₁₇H₁₉N₃•HCl, this dye interacts selectively with DNA and RNA based on concentration and pH conditions. It precipitates RNA and intercalates DNA at lower concentrations. It precipitates DNA and RNA at greater concentrations. This is a dye that has pH-dependent fluorescence. At the neutral pH condition, Acridine Orange gives a bright green fluorescence, and at the acidic condition, it gathers in the acidic organelles and gives bright red or orange fluorescence. It is also chemically referred to as 3, 6, Bis(dimethylamino)acridine hydrochloride.

Applications

  • Applied to detect nuclei and autophagic lysosomes with the help of green and orange/red fluorescence.
  • Broadly used in chromosome staining and cellular imaging.

Key features

  • pH-Sensitive Fluorescence: As an effective pH indicator in acidic cellular compartments.
  • Metachromatic Properties: Interacts well with DNA, RNA and acidic glycosaminoglycans.
  • High Quality & Cost-Effective: Applicable both in a standard laboratory environment and in high-level research.
