9-Acridinecarboxylic acid hydrate functions as a fluorescent dye in molecular biology and cell biology. It is used to stain nucleic acids, particularly DNA, in order to visualize and study their structure and localization within cells. The mechanism of action of 9-Acridinecarboxylic acid hydrate involves intercalating between the base pairs of DNA, leading to the emission of fluorescence when exposed to ultraviolet light. This make it useful in tracking the movement and distribution of DNA in various cellular processes, such as replication, transcription, and repair. 9-Acridinecarboxylic acid hydrate can be utilized in assays to quantify DNA content and assess cell viability.
