Aldehyde reactive probe (ARP) is used to detect abasic sites (AP sites, depurine/depyrimidine sites) in DNA because of its aldehyde-specific reactivity. ARP reacts with aldehyde and ketone groups, and it adds biotin to AP sites in DNA. The biotin-tagged DNA is then detected using peroxidase-labeled avidin and oxidative chromogenic dyes. The ARP method has been used to detect less than 1 AP site in 1x104 nucleotides of DNA. Dojindo offers a DNA Damage Quantification Kit (Product Code: DK02) containing all the reagents and components necessary to determine 1 to 40 ARP sites per 1x105 base pairs. ARP is highly soluble in water and the stock solution can be stored at 4°C for one year without significant loss of reactivity.
