DAPI is a fluorescent probe which is commonly used to stain DNA and chromosomes for fluorescent microscopy and flow cytometry applications. It forms a fluorescent complex by attaching in the minor groove of A-T rich sequences of DNA. DAPI is often used as a counterstain, as its ultraviolet (max 358 nm) excitation and blue (max 461 nm) emission wavelengths separate it nicely from many popular primary fluorophores. It can be used on either fixed or live cells, although its low permeability in live cells demands that higher concentrations be used.
DAPI is used for photofootprinting of DNA, to detect annealed probes in blotting applications by specifically visualizing the double-stranded complex and as a cell permeable fluorescent minor groove-binding probe for DNA. For staining DNA in agarose gels.
DAPI has been used in rapid monitoring of microbial contamination,chromosomal banding technique, detection of apoptotic cells, fluorescence microscopy to track the DisA (DNA integritiy scanning protein) movement on Bacillus subtilis DNA to stain mature pollen grains.
