The elemental composition of the dyes was confirmed using an Agilent Technologies 6520 Accurate-Mass QTOF LC/MS (Agilent, Santa Barbara, CA) equipped with an ESI source, operated in negative or positive ion mode. Standard dye solutions were prepared by dissolving 1 mg of dye into 1 mL of methanol : water (60 : 40, v/v). The dye solutions were injected into the ESI source using a Harvard PhD 2000 Infusion syringe pump at a rate of 6 μL min–1.

UV/vis absorption spectra over the range 230-500 nm were recorded with a Varian Cary 300 spectrometer. Measurements were performed in a double cuvette (closed but not evacuated) having sections of 1 and 10 mm optical path length. An equivalent cuvette with pure solvent was used for reference. In melting experiments, after each rising temperature step of 5 1C the sample and holder were allowed to equilibrate for 10 minutes. A total concentration c T = 20.5 mM of single strands was estimated. Spectra between 20 and 80 1C were recorded and corrected for density change. Fluorescence spectra at 25 1C were obtained on a Spex Fluorolog-2, by photometric comparison with a secondary standard lamp. Wavelength axes were calibrated with a holmium glass filter or a Hg lamp.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
