 Use of Phenosafranine


Phenosafranine is a phenazine dye. Phenosafranine has high binding affinity to triplex RNA compared to the parent duplex form, binds through intercalation to both forms of RNA. Phenosafranine can be used for staining plant cells, determination of hemoglobin, dopamine, serotonin and so on[1][2][3].
