Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9416102A1] A method for fluorescent discrimination of cells that are nonviable prior to lysis or fixation techniques using a complementary pair of nucleic acid dyes which competitively bind to nucleic acid but which differ in their fluorescent emission characteristics. An especially preferred pair of dyes is 7-aminoactinomycin D (7-AAD) and actinomycin D (AD).
