Micro-volume couette flow sample orientation for absorbance and fluorescence linear dichroism [PDF]
Linear dichroism (LD) can be used to study the alignment of absorbing chromophores within long molecules. In particular, Couette flow LD has been used to good effect in probing ligand binding to DNA and to fibrous proteins.

Compounds A-I were tested for DNA intercalation in an ethidium bromide exclusion assay.
Each putative ApiAP2 competitor compound was added into a mixture containing double stranded DNA and ethidium bromide. The positive control DNA major groove intercalator DRAQ5 knocks down ethidium bromide fluorescence nearly completely relative to the ...

Caffeine-induced release of small molecules from DNA nanostructures
Summary: Several planar aromatic molecules are known to intercalate between base pairs of double-stranded DNA. This mode of interaction has been used to stain DNA as well as to load drug molecules onto DNA-based nanostructures.

Quantification of viable Legionella pneumophila cells using propidium monoazide combined with quantitative PCR. [PDF]
One of the greatest challenges of implementing fast molecular detection methods as part of Legionella surveillance systems is to limit detection to live cells. In this work, a protocol for sample treatment with propidium monoazide (PMA) in combination

Ethidium bromide binding to DNA cryogels
Abstract The interaction of the classical intercalator ethidium bromide (EtBr) with the double helical network strands of DNA cryogels was investigated. The cryogels were prepared starting from aqueous solutions of DNA (about 2000 base pairs long) at −18 °C using 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether crosslinker under various reaction conditions.

Mitochondria‐Damaging Self‐Reporting Probe for Cancer Therapy
We developed a class of self‐reporting cationic chemotherapeutic probes that selectively induce mitochondrial damage and apoptosis in cancer cells. Their unique mitochondria‐to‐nucleus fluorescence migration enables real‐time visualization of the therapeutic process. ABSTRACT Mitochondrial damage induced by chemotherapeutic agents through disruption of
