Application

Ethidium bromide (EtBr) is the most commonly used nucleic acid stain for PAGE or agarose gel electrophoresis. The fluorescence of EtBr increases 21-fold upon binding to double-stranded RNA and 25-fold on binding double-stranded DNA so that destaining the background is not necessary with a low stain concentration (10 μg/ml). Ethidium bromide has been used in a number of fluorimetric assays for nucleic acids. It has been shown to bind to single-stranded DNA (although not as strongly) and triple-stranded DNA. Because of its ability to bind to DNA, EtBr is an inhibitor of DNA polymerase.

Frameshift mutagen which intercalates double-stranded DNA and RNA.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Ethidium bromide intercalates double-stranded DNA and RNA and acts as a frameshift mutagen. It can also be used in conjunction with acridine orange to differentiate between viable, apoptotic and necrotic cells.

Reconstitution

Para la coloración de un gel después de electroforesis diluya una muestra de la solución madre hasta 0,5 μg/ml con agua e incube el gel durante 15 a 30 min. La decoloración no suele ser necesaria, pero puede llevarse a cabo durante 15 minutos si es preciso disminuir el fondo. Las bandas de ADN pueden detectarse en una caja de luz UV (254 nm de longitud de onda). También puede incorporarse bromuro de etidio en el gel para que actúe como tampón (0,5 μg/ml) y visualizarse inmediatamente por electroforesis.
