Technical Data
D3878-13B
DNA, ds
Description:
dsDNA (double stranded deoxyribonucleic acid) is the genetic material of all cells and many viruses and is a polymer of nucleotides. The monomer consists of phosphorylated 2-deoxyribose N-glycosidically linked to one of four bases, adenine, cytosine, guanine or thymine. These are linked together by 3',5'-phosphodiester bridges. In the Watson-Crick double-helix model, two complementary strands are wound in a right-handed helix and held together by hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs.

Applications:
Suitable for use in Flow Cytometry, Immunohistochemistry and Immunocytochemistry. Other applications not tested.

Recommended Dilution:
Immunohistochemistry: Paraformaldehyde fixed or frozen tissue and formalin fixed paraffin-embedded tissue sections.
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.

Positive Control:
Tonsil tissue

Storage and Stability:
May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
