ssGreen is one of the most sensitive stains for post-electrophoresis staining of RNA and single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) in agarose or polyacrylamide gels. The fluorescence quantum yield of the ssGreen/RNA complex is more than 7× higher than that of the ethidium bromide/RNA complex. Although ssGreen is not selective for RNA staining, the dye exhibits about 1.5× greater quantum yield when bound to RNA than double-stranded DNA, which makes it unique among all nucleic acid dyes.
