DIG-labeled, single-stranded RNA probes of defined length are generated by in vitro transcription. DIG-11-UTP is incorporated by SP6, T7, and T3 RNA polymerases at approximately every 20 to 25th nucleotide of the transcript under standard conditions. The DIG RNA Labeling Mix is specifically designed for the use with SP6, T7, and T3 RNA polymerases, which are supplied with an optimized transcription buffer.
Convenient nucleotide mixture for the labeling of RNA with Digoxigenin-11-UTP.

Sigma Life Science is committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product is designed as a safer chemical. The DIG System was established as a sensitive and cost-effective alternative to using radioactivity for the labeling and detection of nucleic acids. There are many available publications that prove the versatility of the DIG System, so use of radio-labeling is no longer the only option for labeling of DNA for hybridization.
