• Kit Includes DNA Standards or Buy the Dye Alone

MagicBlue™ double stranded DNA quantitation kits offer ultra-sensitive and selective detection of dsDNA with minimal effects from common contaminants. The high sensitivity kit is superior to the PicoGreen™ or Quant-iT™ dsDNA detection kits by having a similar detection limit,  but with more convenience and better safety. The high sensitivity reagent is impermeable to cell membranes, whereas PicoGreen™ or the high sensitivity Quant-iT™ DNA-binding dye readily crosses cell membranes. Moreover, the MagicBlue™ reagent is extremely stable. Supplied with a 1X aqueous quantitation solution, enhancer, and DNA standards, MagicBlue™ can be conveniently stored at +4°C, unlike PicoGreen™ or the Quant-iT™ reagents, which have to be aliquoted for storage to avoid freeze-thaw damage.

The kits are compatible with microplate readers, spectrofluorometers and hand-held units. Sufficient reagents are included to perform 1000 assays based on a 96-well microplate format.
