Hoechst dyes are cell membrane-permeant, minor groove-binding blue fluorescent DNA stains. These dyes are widely used in cell cycle and apoptosis studies as nuclear counterstains. Biotium offers Hoechst 33258 and Hoechst 33342 dyes in both solution or powder forms. Both dyes are spectrally similar but Hoechst 33528 is slightly more water soluble than Hoechst 33342. The dyes can be used to stain live or fixed cells in buffer or medium at 1 ug/mL, with no wash step required.
Hoechst can also be used to stain live bacteria (gram-positive and gram-negative), but in live yeast the staining is weak and not nuclear. See our Cellular Stains Table for more information on how our dyes stain various organisms.
