Cell Based Assays
Molecular Probes™ LIVE/DEAD™ Fixable Aqua Dead Cell Stain Kit, for 405 nm excitation
The LIVE/DEAD™ Fixable Aqua Dead Cell Stain Kit is used to determine the viability of cells prior to the fixation and permeabilization required for intracellular antibody staining, or prior to elimination of biohazardous materials using formaldehyde fixation.
Invitrogen™ Calcein AM, Cell-permeant Green and Blue Dyes
Calcein AM is a cell-permeant dye that can be used to determine cell viability in most eukaryotic cells. In live cells, the non-fluorescent Calcein AM is converted to green or blue fluorescent Calcein, after acetoxymethyl ester hydrolysis by intracellular esterases.
Invitrogen™ LIVE/DEAD™ Cell Imaging Kit (488/570)
Sensitive two-color fluorescence cell viability assay optimized for FITC and Texas Red™ filters
Invitrogen™ SYTO™ Green Fluorescent Nucleic Acid Stains
SYTO Green Fluorescent Nucleic Acid Stains exhibit bright, green fluorescence upon binding to nucleic acids. These dyes are cell-permeant and can be used to stain RNA and DNA in live cells, dead cells, and bacteria.
Invitrogen™ PrestoBlue™ and PrestoBlue™ HS Cell Viability Reagents
Monitor cell proliferation and viability with the resazurin-based PrestoBlue and PrestoBlue HS cell viability reagents. These nontoxic and cell permeable reagents quantitatively measure cell viability in as little as 10 minutes using absorbance- or fluorescence-based microplate readers.
Invitrogen™ CellMask™ Plasma Membrane Stains
Invitrogen CellMask™ plasma membrane stains enable fast and uniform labeling of the plasma membrane in almost all cell types. These stains work rapidly and can be detected using standard microscope filter sets with any imaging instrument.
Invitrogen™ Dextran, Alexa Fluor™ 488; 10,000 MW, Anionic, Fixable
Labeled dextrans are hydrophilic polysaccharides most commonly used in microscopy studies to monitor cell division, track the movement of live cells, and to report the hydrodynamic properties of the cytoplasmic matrix.
Invitrogen™ Click-iT™ EdU Cell Proliferation Kit for Imaging, Alexa Fluor™ 647 dye
Works the first time, every time, in less time
Molecular Probes™ LIVE/DEAD™ BacLight™ Bacterial Viability Kits
LIVE/DEAD™ BacLight™ Bacterial Viability Kits are easy-to-use fluorescent staining kits commonly used for assessing the viability of bacterial cells. These kits provide a two-color fluorescence assay of bacterial viability using green and red fluorescent dyes for use with imaging, flow, and assays.
Molecular Probes™ Dead Cell Apoptosis Kits with Annexin V for Flow Cytometry
Assess cell viability with Dead Cell Apoptosis kits with Annexin V and conjugated fluorescent dyes such as Alexa Fluor 488, FITC, PI, PE, APC, and SYTOX Green.
Invitrogen™ Propidium Iodide Ready Flow™ Reagent
Propidium Iodide Ready Flow™ Reagent is a bright, easy-to-use nucleic acid stain for distinguishing dead cells from live cells in flow cytometry assays.
Thermo Scientific™ MitoProbe™ TMRM Assay Kit for Flow Cytometry
The MitoProbe TMRM Assay Kit contains tetramethylrhodamine methyl ester (TMRM) for the detection of mitochondrial membrane potential state and CCCP for the induction of mitochondrial membrane depolarization, if desired.
Molecular Probes™ SYTOX™ Blue Dead Cell Stain, for flow cytometry
SYTOX™ Blue dead cell stain is a simple and quantitative single-step dead-cell indicator for use with violet laser equipped flow cytometers.
Invitrogen™ Amplex™ Red and Amplex™ UltraRed Reagents
The Amplex Red and UltraRed reagents are fluorogenic substrates for peroxidase. These highly sensitive and stable probes react with H2O2 in the presence of HRP for solution-based assays and ELISAs. Amplex UltraRed is a brighter version of Amplex Red with an improved pH range and sensitivity.
