Description
PMAxx™ Dye, 20 mM in H2O | 40069
PMAxx™ is a photoreactive DNA-binding dye for viability PCR. It was designed by Biotium scientists to be a superior alternative to the popular viability dye propidium monoazide (PMA).
- Selectively detect viable cells using qPCR
- Better live/dead discrimination of bacteria than PMA
- Dead cell specific dye, binds to DNA
- Covalently attaches to DNA after photoactivation
- 20 mM in water, 100 uL volume
- λAbs = 464 nm (before photolysis); λAbs/λEm= ~510/~610 nm (with DNA/RNA, after photolysis)
