NUCLEAR-ID® Blue/Red cell viability reagent (GFP-CERTIFIED®)

Description:
Distinguishes between live vs dead cells in a single reagent. The NUCLEAR-ID® Blue/Red cell viability reagent (GFP-CERTIFIED®) is a mixture of a blue fluorescent cell-permeable nucleic acid dye and a red fluorescent cell-impermeable nucleic acid dye that is suited for staining dead nuclei. The staining pattern arising from the simultaneous combination of these two dyes permits determination of live and dead cell populations by fluorescence/confocal microscopy. The reagent, supplied as a 1000x solution, is sufficient for 1000 microscopy assays. The single-tube format makes this cell viability reagent easy to use. It leaves the cytoplasm unstained, potentially allowing visualization of other cell markers. This reagent is specificially designed for use with GFP-expressing cell lines.
