MOLECULAR DIAGNOSTICS EXAM #2 QUESTIONS WITH CORRECT ANSWERS p. 110 nucleic acid specific dyes - SYBR green - ANSWER-SyBr green in association with DNA or RNA also emits light in the orange range (522 nm). In agarose gel electrophoresis, SyBr staining is 25-100 times more sensitive than EtBr (detection level: 60 pg of double-stranded DNA vs. 5 ng for EtBr). This is due, in part, to background fluorescence from EtBr in agarose. SyBr green can also be added directly to the DNA sample before ...
