FxCycle™ PI/RNase Staining Solution

Category: Products & Services > Labeling & Detection Products > Cell Stains > Nucleic Acid Cell Stains

FxCycle™ PI/RNase Staining Solution is used for flow cyotmetric analysis of DNA content in fixed cells. Propidium iodide (PI), a popular red-fluorescent stain, binds to DNA by intercalating between the bases with little or no sequence preference and with a stoichiometry of one dye per 4–5 base pairs of DNA. PI also binds to RNA, necessitating treatment with RNase to distinguish between RNA and DNA staining. This propidium iodide solution includes DNase-free RNase A and a permeablization reagent. It comes ready to use: simply add the staining solution to fixed cells, incubate, and acquire on a ...

CellMask™ Deep Red Plasma membrane Stain

Category: Products & Services > Labeling & Detection Products > Cell Stains > Organelle Stains

The CellMask™ Plasma Membrane Stains allow fast and uniform labeling of the plasma membrane without the cell-type differences exhibited by lectins. These stains may be used as a segmentation tool for HCS (high-content screening), as well as to stain cellular plasma membranes for standard fluorescence microscopy. The stain survives fixation, but not permeabilization, so it is not suitable for experiments that also involve probing internal targets via antibodies.

FM® 4-64FX, fixable analog of FM® 4-64 membrane stain

Category: Products & Services > Labeling & Detection Products > Cell Stains > Other Cell Stains

The lipophilic probe, FM™ 4-64FX exhibits low fluorescence in water but fluoresces intensely upon binding the outer leaf of the plasma membrane providing discrete plasma membrane staining. The binding is rapid and reversible and "FX" denotes that this analog is fixable with aldehyde-based fixatives. It is also an excellent reagent for identifying actively firing neurons and for investigating the mechanisms of activity-dependent vesicle cycling.

LIVE/DEAD® Fixable Blue Dead Cell Stain Kit, for UV excitation

Category: Products & Services > Kits & Assays > Cell Analysis Kits > Cell Viability Kits

The LIVE/DEAD® Fixable Dead Cell Stain Kit employs an amine-reactive fluorescent dye to evaluate mammalian cell viability by flow cytometry. In cells with compromised membranes, the dye reacts with free amines both in the cell interior and on the cell surface, yielding intense fluorescent staining. In viable cells, the dye's reactivity is restricted to the cell-surface amines, resulting in less intense fluorescence. The difference in intensity between the live and dead cell populations is typically greater than 50 fold, and this fluorescence intensity discrimination is completely preserved fol...
