Cell Based Assays
Cell Based Assays
Invitrogen™ LIVE/DEAD™ Viability/Cytotoxicity Kit, for mammalian cells
Useful with a variety of fluorescence-detection methodologies
Invitrogen™ alamarBlue™ and alamarBlue™ HS Cell Viability Reagents
The alamarBlue cell viability reagents are ready-to-use resazurin-based solutions that function as cell health indicators by using the reducing power of living cells to quantitatively measure viability.
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™ CyQUANT™ MTT and XTT Cell Viability Assays
CyQUANT MTT and XTT Cell Viability assays are colorimetric microplate assays for accurate assessment of cell health, proliferation, and cytotoxicity. CyQUANT MTT is a well-established assay, while CyQUANT XTT offers improved performance and continuous measurement without cell lysis or solubilization.
Invitrogen™ SYTOX™ Green Nucleic Acid Stain - 5 mM Solution in DMSO
Useful indicator of dead cells within a population
Invitrogen™ LIVE/DEAD™ Cell Imaging Kit (488/570)
Sensitive two-color fluorescence cell viability assay optimized for FITC and Texas Red™ filters
Invitrogen™ CellTracker™ Fluorescent Probes
CellTracker™ is a fluorescent dye well suited for monitoring cell movement or location. After loading into cells, the dye is well retained, allowing for multigenerational tracking of cellular movements.
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.
Invitrogen™ CellROX™ Deep Red Reagent, for oxidative stress detection
CellROX™ Deep Red Reagent is a novel fluorogenic probe for measuring cellular oxidative stress in both live and fixed cell imaging, with absorption/emission maxima at ∼644/665 nm.
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™ LysoTracker™ Red DND-99, special packaging
Red-fluorescent dye for labeling and tracking acidic organelles in live cells
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™ 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.
