Fluorescence detection method of cytoskeletal components and nucleic acid using a dicationic aryl furans - Bis

摘要

Disclosed is a method of fluorescent detection of a nucleic acid. The method comprises contacting to the nucleic acid a bis-dicationic aryl furan compound, such as 2,5-bis[4-(4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-1,3-diazepin-2-yl) phenyl] furan; 2,5-bis{[4-(N-isopropyl) amidino] phenyl}furan; and physiologically acceptable salts thereof, and exposing the nucleic acid to light at a frequency to induce fluorescence of the compound. A method for fluorescent detection of cytoskeleton elements, and novel bis-dicationic aryl furan compounds are also disclosed.
