Formamide, 1g

Formamide (Methanamide; Formimidic acid) is a clear liquid amide derived from formic acid. It allows for the denaturation and renaturation of nucleic acids at room temperature. Formamide-induced DNA denaturation when combined with detection of denatured DNA with a monoclonal antibody (MAb) makes it possible to specifically identify the apoptotic cells.
