What is SYTOX Red?
What is SYTOX Red?
SYTOX™ Red dead cell stain is a simple and quantitative single-step dead-cell indicator for use with red laser-equipped flow cytometers. SYTOX™ Red dead cell stain is a high-affinity nucleic acid stain that easily penetrates cells with compromised plasma membranes but will not cross uncompromised cell membranes.
Is Sytox fixable?
Sytox green is non-permeable DNA binding dye.
Is SYTOX Green toxic to cells?
Similar to PI, SYTOX Green does not display any side effects on cellular viability, proliferation, or cell migration when used in concentrations up to 1 mM (3). Cell suspension can be collected and analyzed without any centrifugation and washing steps (3).
What Sytox green?
SYTOX Green nucleic acid stain is an excellent green-fluorescent nuclear and chromosome counterstain that is impermeant to live cells but penetrates the compromised membranes characteristic of dead cells, making it a useful indicator of dead cells within a population.
What is DRAQ5?
DRAQ5™ is an anthraquinone dye with high affinity for double-stranded DNA. It is a membrane-permeable dye that can label live or fixed/dead cells. In flow cytometry, this dye can be used to distinguish nucleated and non-nucleated cells.
What Sytox blue?
SYTOX™ Blue dead cell stain is a simple and quantitative single-step dead-cell indicator for use with violet laser equipped flow cytometers. SYTOX™ Blue dead cell stain is a high-affinity nucleic acid stain that easily penetrates cells with compromised plasma membranes but will not cross uncompromised cell membranes.
What stains DRAQ5?
DRAQ5™ is a far-red emitting, anthraquinone compound that stains nuclei in live cells. It is permeant to live cells and thus can be used for cell cycle analysis and/or staining of nucleated cells. It is optimally excited at 568 nm, 633 nm, and 647nm and can be detected using 695LP, 715LP, and 780LP filters.
