Abstract
New intercalating cyanine dyes are provided in which the benzothiazole portion of the cyanine dye has been modified to produce dyes with improved properties for labelling nucleic acids. The fluorescent cyanine dyes have a positively charged substituent attached to the positively charged nitrogen on the benzothiazole portion of the cyanine dye.
