While PI staining alone can observe the sub-G1 peak of apoptotic cells on the DNA histogram, it can only represent apoptosis in the G0/G1 phase and cannot observe apoptosis in the S and G2 phases. Moreover, after fixation, it is impossible to distinguish between live and dead cells. Hoechst 33258 can penetrate the cell membrane and bind to DNA in both normal and apoptotic cells, showing blue fluorescence under ultraviolet light. After staining, the fluorescence of apoptotic cells is significantly enhanced compared to normal cells. PI cannot penetrate the cell membrane and cannot stain normal or apoptotic cells with intact cell membranes. However, for necrotic cells, where the integrity of the cell membrane is lost, PI can penetrate the cell membrane and color the necrotic cells to produce red fluorescence. When these two dyes are used for double staining, normal cells appear weak blue, apoptotic cells appear bright blue, and necrotic cells appear bright blue and red.ComponentH1492197Component100TStorageQuantity Per TestH1492197AHoechst 33258 Staining Solution1 mL-20℃, Store in the dark.10 µL per 0.5-1.0x10⁶ H1492197BPropidium iodide Staining Solution (PI)0.5 mL-20℃, Store in the dark.5 µL per 0.5-1.0x10⁶ Note: The recommended number of cells to stain per test 0.5–1.0×10⁶ cells.Usage method:1. Cell PreparationAdherent cells: Grow cells in 6-well plates to the logarithmic growth phase. Wash twice with PBS and add 1 mL of PBS.Suspension cells: Wash cells twice with pre-cooled PBS and resuspend in PBS at a density of 0.5–1.0×10⁶ cells/mL.2. StainingAdherent cells: Add 10 µL of Hoechst 33342 and 5 µL of PI directly to each well of the 6-well plate. Incubate at 4 °C in the dark for 20–30 minutes.Suspension cells: Take 1 mL of the cell suspension, add 10 µL of Hoechst 33342 and 5 µL of PI, and incubate at 4 °C in the dark for 20–30 minutes.Note: After staining, proceed with fluorescence detection as soon as possible. The number of cells for each detection should not exceed 1×10⁶.3. Fluorescence Microscopy Detection and AnalysisAdherent cells: Remove the staining solution, wash twice with PBS, add an appropriate amount of PBS, and observe under a fluorescence microscope.Suspension cells: Wash twice with PBS, resuspend the cells in PBS, transfer to a culture dish, and observe for red and blue fluorescence.Matters needing attention:1. After the staining process is completed, the detection should be carried out as soon as possible.Hoechst 33258 and PI are harmful to the human body. Please take protective measures when using them.2. For your safety and health, please wear a laboratory coat and put on disposable gloves when operating.3.

Cobalt is an important cofactor for the Vitamin B12class of compounds where it occupies the center of the vitamin B12corrin ring. Cobalt can also be coordinated in the active site of the non-corrin containing metalloenzyme methionine aminopeptidase.Suitability: Suitable for quantitating cobalt concentrations in a variety of samplesPrinciple: The Cobalt Assay kit provides a simple and direct procedure for measuring cobalt in a variety of samples. In this assay, cobalt reacts with 2-mercaptoethanol under basic conditions to form a complex with a strong absorbance at 475 nm. Interference from the metal ions Fe2+, Cu2+, Ni2+, Zn2+, and Mn2+is <10% at this wavelength. This assay gives a linear range of 10-50 nmoles of cobalt.}Preparation instructionsSuitable for quantitating cobalt concentrations in a variety of samplesPrincipleThe Cobalt Assay kit provides a simple and direct procedure for measuring cobalt in a variety of samples.
