Nuclear Green™ LCS1 is a DNA-selective and cell-permeant dye that is used to label DNA content in living cells. Upon binding to double-stranded DNA, Nuclear Green™ LCS1 fluoresces, and this fluorescence can be measured using fluorescence microscopy, microplate fluorometry, or flow cytometry. Nuclear Green™ LCS1 displays excitation/emission maxima of 503/526 nm, respectively. Nuclear Green™ LCS1 has been used to sort hybrid cells without complementary genetic markers by FACS analysis.
