Description

General description

MUG is a chemical commonly used for the detection of transformed plants. MUG shows low levels of fluorescence until treatment with glucuronidase (GUS) encoded in transformed plants. Transformed plants can be identified by their MUG fluorescence.

Application

Suitable for fluorescent detection of glucuronidase gene expression in plants.

Reconstitution

Product is soluble in molecular biology grade water at a concentration of 0.35 mg/ml.
