Cell Viability Assay Kit (Fluorometric - Green)

製品の詳細

There are a variety of parameters that can be used to monitor cell viability. The green fluorescent dye used in the kit is a hydrophobic compound. It easily permeates intact live cells and gets enhanced fluorescence upon entering into live cells. The hydrolysis of the non-fluorescent substrate by intracellular esterases generates a strongly green fluorescent hydrophilic product that is well-retained in the cell cytoplasm. The green fluorophore generated by the non-fluorescent substrate used in the kit has the spectral properties of fluorescein at Ex/Em = ~490 nm/520 nm. When well excited with the Argon Laser at 488 nm, the fluorophore emits intense green fluorescence at ~520 nm.

ab112122 provides all the essential components with an optimized cell-labeling protocol for fluorescence microplate assays. It can also be used with a fluorescence microscope equipped with a FITC filter set.

ab112122 provides an effective tool of labeling cells for fluorescence microplate and microscopic investigations of cellular functions. It is useful for a variety of studies, including cell adhesion, chemotaxis, multidrug resistance, cell viability, apoptosis and cytotoxicity. ab112122 is suitable for proliferating and non-proliferating cells.
