Abstract

See full text

A composition for enhancing differential staining of RNA, DNA and granules in a sample comprising cells contains a first fluorescent dye that can bind specific binding sites and non-specific binding sites in the sample. This first dye emits fluorescence at a first wavelength. The composition contains at least an additional component, which is a second non-intercalating dye in the composition that competes with said first dye for binding to the nonspecific binding sites, or a permeabilizing agent to enhance permabilization of the dyes into the cells, or both. The molar ratio of the second dye and the first dye is at least about 20:1.
