Methyl Green zinc chloride（Cat No.:I043081）is a chemical compound commonly used as a nucleic acid stain in molecular biology. It binds selectively to DNA, producing a green fluorescence when exposed to ultraviolet light, making it ideal for visualizing nucleic acids in agarose gel electrophoresis and in histological applications. The zinc chloride component enhances the stability and binding affinity of Methyl Green to DNA. This dye is useful for applications that require specific DNA visualization, such as in the study of gene expression, molecular interactions, and nucleic acid quantification in research and diagnostic laboratories.
