Product Description: DRAQ5 is a novel cell permeant and far red-fluorescing DNA probe. DRAQ5 excites at a wavelength of 647 nm, close to the Ex, and produces a fluorescence spectrum extending from 665 nm out to beyond 780 nm wavelengths. DRAQ5 fluorescence reflects cellular DNA content. DRAQ5 can be used in combination with FITC and RPE-labelled antibodies, without the need for fluorescence compensation[1].
