SYBR Green I is a fluorescent dye that binds to double stranded DNA. This dye then fluoresces green when excited by blue light. SYBR green dye is very efficient at visualizing DNA, incredibly safe to users, and cheap, making it a prime dye for basic DNA displaying. | SYBR Green I is a fluorescent dye that binds to double stranded DNA.

A fluorimeter is a device used to measure amounts of fluorescence. The device usually measures fixed wavelengths either by filters, monochromators or fixed diodes. | A fluorimeter is a device used to measure amounts of fluorescence. The device usually measures fixed wavelengths either by filters, monochromators or fixed diodes. Fluorimeters have two light detectors: one light detects the absorbance, while the other detects fluorescence emission. <br> | ||
