Thiazole orange is an asymmetric cyanine dye with a fluorescent assymmetic cyanine exited at 514 nm and an emission peak at 533 nm when an oligonucleotide labeled with thiazole orange is hybridized to its complementary sequence, the thiazole orange acts as an intercalator. In addition to providing enhanced thermal stability, the dye adopts a mostly planar configuration resulting in as high as 34 fold light up capability which significantly enhanced fluorescence.

  • Up to 3.9 to 8.6 fluorescent enhancement during hybridization
  • Ehanced duplex stability which allow short probe design
  • High sensitve, multi-color detection of DNA and RNA
