DiI is a lipophilic membrane stain that diffuses laterally to stain the entire cell. It is weakly fluorescent until incorporated into membranes. This orange—red-fluorescent dye, which is spectrally similar to tetramethylrhodamine, is often used as a long-term tracer for neuronal and other cells. DiI is also available as a solid (D-282), as a paste (N-22880) or as crystals (D-3911).

ER-Tracker Blue-White DPX dye is a photostable probe that is selective for the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in live cells. The cells can be aldehyde-fixed after staining with the dye but significant fluorescence signal will be lost. With excitation at ~374 nm, the environmentally-sensitive probe exhibits emission between 430 and 640 nm. A long-pass DAPI filter works best.

The ER-Tracker™ Red dye is cell-permeant, live-cell stain that is highly selective for the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) that when stained using the protocol provided, the staining pattern is partially retained after fixation with formaldehyde. This stain consists of the green-fluorescent BODIPY® TR dye and glibenclamide. Glibenclamide (glyburide) binds to the sulphonylurea receptors of ATP-sensitive K + channels which are prominent on ER; the pharmacological activity of glibenclamide could potentially affect ER function. Variable expression of sulphonylurea receptors in some specialized cell typ...

Mouse Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) were isolated from mouse (Strain C57BL⁄6) embryos at Day E3.5. Before cryopreservation, the cells were tested for viability (>70% post-thaw viability), their ability to remain undifferentiated when cultured on mouse feeder cells as assayed by marker expression (Oct4, SSEA-1, Nanog) and their ability to differentiate into embryoid bodies and express markers indicative of three germ layers (Ectoderm: (+) for β3-tubulin and nestin, Mesoderm: (+) for smooth muscle actin, Endoderm: (+) for AFP). Cells were cryopreserved at passage 20 (P20). For optimal growth perfo...

The combination of the antibiotics penicillin and streptomycin are used to prevent bacterial contamination of cell cultures due to their effective action against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, respectively. Penicillin was originally purified from the fungi Penicillium and acts by interfering directly with the turnover of the bacteria cell wall and indirectly by triggering the release of enzymes that further alter the cell wall. Streptomycin was originally purified from Streptomyces griseus . Streptomycin acts by binding to the 30S subunit of the bacterial ribosome leading to inhibit...
