DRAQ7 DROP & GO Dye is a bright, easy-to-use fluorescent DNA dye used to exclude non-viable cells by flow cytometry
This dye has excitation maxima at 599/644 nm and emission maxima at 678/697 nm
Stable at room temperature Convenient, ready-to-use dropper-bottle format—no need to dilute, weigh, or pipette No UV excitation and no emission spectral overlap with PE DRAQ7 Dye is a membrane-impermeable dye that rapidly stains the double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) of dead or permeabilized cells
The dye can be excited by wavelengths from 488 to 647 nm, though it is optimally excited by red laser lines
Its emission maxima is at 697 nm when intercalated with dsDNA.
