Abstract
Novel fluorescent labeling techniques and fluorescent labels are provided, employing high affinity non-covalently binding and intercalating fluorescent dyes and dsDNA. The dyes find application to provide highly sensitive labeling of nucleic acids in electrophoretic gels and as pre-prepared labels for binding to a wide variety of specific binding pair members. The DNA-dye fluorescer complex can be used for labels in diagnostic assays, detection of specific nucleic acid sequences, and the like.
