Ethidium homodimer I 2 mM in DMSO ≥95% (by TLC), Sigma-Aldrich®
Supplier: SIGMA ALDRICH MICROSCOPY
Ethidium homodimer is a red fluorescent dye. It cannot cross an intact plasma membrane, but can easily pass through a damaged plasma membrane. Ethidium homodimer is used to check membrane integrity. One molecule of EthD-1 will non-selectively bind four base pairs in dsDNA.

Ethidium homodimer I used in nuclear staining
Supplier: Biotium
Ethidium Homodimer, first developed by Dr. Le Pecq and his colleagues, is a high-affinity fluorescent nucleic acid stain. It binds to both DNA and RNA in a sequence-independent manner and with a >30-fold fluorescence enhancement. The DNA binding of each Ethidium Homodimer covers four base pairs and is believed to occur by intercalation. Because the dye is highly positively charged, it cannot cross cell membranes to stain living cells. It is useful for detecting nucleic acids in solution, or for selectively staining dead cells with damaged plasma membranes.
