Abstract
Investigations into the detection and identification of nucleic acids in living and fixed cells are largely based on the use of 3,6-diaminoacridine (proflavine) (Allison and Young 1964; Robbins 1960; and others) — and its tetramethylated derivative Acridine Orange (AO) (Schümmelfeder 1950, 1957; Rigler 1966).
