  • Scientific Description
    Hoechst 33258 is a blue to blue-green fluorescent live cell dye that can label DNA. Hoechst 33258 can specifically bind to the minor groove of DNA (and tends to bind to A/T-rich DNA), resulting in a significant increase in fluorescence intensity. Hoechst 33258 can cross the cell membrane and cause changes in DNA structure, such as G2/M phase arrest. Hoechst 33258 can bind to live or fixed cells, and the fluorescence intensity increases with increasing solution pH. As a DNA-specific probe, Hoechst 33258 can be used to detect DNA content, analyze cell cycle, etc. The excitation wavelength of Hoechst 33258 is 350-365 nm, and the emission wavelength is 460-490 nm[1][2][3].
