General description

Acridine is a small cationic and planar dye that mainly binds to RNA and DNA. These dyes are strongly fluorescent. It resembles the structure of xanthene except that the heteroatom is nitrogen, not oxygen.

Application

Acridine is suitable for nucleic acid staining, particularly for cell cycle determination. Acridines are used as fluorescent materials for visualization of biomolecules, and in laser technologies.
