This kit contains Calcein-AM and Propidium Iodide (PI) solutions, which stains viable and dead cells, respectively(Fig. 1). Calcein-AM, an acetoxymethyl ester of calcein, is highly Calcein AM /PI Double Staining Kitis utilized for simultaneous fluorescence staining of viable and dead cells. This kit contains Calcein-AM and Propidium Iodide (PI) solutions, which stains viable and dead cells, respectively(Fig. 1). Calcein-AM, an acetoxymethyl ester of calcein, is highly lipophilic and cell membrane permeable. Though Calcein-AM itself is not a fluorescent molecule, the calcein generated from Calcein-AM by esterase in a viable cell emits a strong green fluorescence (excitationat 490 nm, emission at515 nm). Therefore, Calcein-AM only stains viable cells. On the other hand, PI, a nuclei staining dye, cannot pass through a viable cell membrane. It reaches the nucleus by passing through disordered areas of dead cell membrane, and intercalates with the DNA double helix of the cell to emit red fluorescence (excitation: 535 nm,emmision: 617 nm). Since both calcein and PI-DNA can be excited with 490 nm, simultaneous monitoring of viable and dead cells is possible with a fluorescence microscope. With 545 nm excitation, only dead cells can be observed (Fig. 1). Since optimal staining conditions differ from cell line to cell line, we recommend that a suitable concentration of PI and Calcein-AM be individually determined. Please note that PI is suspected to be highly carcinogenic;careful handling is required.Required Equipment and Materials:Microscope with 490 nm excitation filter and 530 nm emission filter；CO2incubator；10 µl and 200 µl adjustable pipettes, PBSSolution A (Calcein-AM)；Solution B (PI) Storage Condition: -20oC ；Shipping Condition: blue ice.Application:Assay Procedure1)Add 2.5 µl Solution A and 12.5 µl Solution B to 5 ml PBS to prepare assay solution.*2)Wash the cell with PBS several times to remove residual esterase activity.3)Add 100uLof assay solution to200uL105~106CELLSsolution and incubate the mixture at 37oC for 15 min.4)Detect fluorescence using a fluorescence mircoscope with 490 nm excitationfor simultaneous monitoring of viable and dead cells.With 545 nm excitation, only dead cells can be observed.*The following steps may be necessary tooptimizethe suitable concentration of each reagent:1)Prepare dead cells by 10 min incubation in 0.1% saponin or 0.1-0.5% digitonin or by 30 min incubation in 70% ethanol.2)Stain dead cells with 0.1-10 µM PI solution to find a PI concentration that stains the nucleus only, not the cytosol.3)Stain dead cells with 0.1-10 µM Calcein-AM solution to find a Calcein-AM concentration that does not stain the cytosol. Then stainviable cells with that Calcein-AM solution to check whether the viable cell can be stained...

This is achieved by (1) spiking a complex Internal Standard (WORKFLOW-A) into a biological sample to a) quantify all the biochemicals in the sample relative to their counterparts in the Internal Standard, b) suppression-correct each compound and c) normalize sample to sample variances; and (2) injecting the same well characterized Long-Term Reference Standard (WORKFLOW-B) to create a daily retention time (RT) library of all compounds to be found in the Internal Standard for reproducible ID, and to measure day-to-day (QA/QC) to assure reproducible instrument performance. The system is completely automated using IROA ClusterFinder™software.IROA TruQuant IQQ Workflow Kit contains the materials and tools for the analysis of 90 experimental samples.

It is the only kit that allows users to select and couple their choice of carboxylated particle with their chosen protein.Employing a unique mechanism to immobilise proteins, Anteo′s advantages outweigh those of conventional covalent chemistries such as NHS/EDC or passive binding. This facilitates coupling of antibodies with ease, improved functionality and reproducibility, leading to better uniformity between experiments.Anteo′s Activation Reagent is water-based and replaces the dry chemicals you would use with the traditional NHS/EDC method. Our One-Step-Activation only takes one hour, and improves efficiency in terms of both time and cost. It also provides the ability to either store activated particles up to 12 months for later use, or to immediately couple proteins.Particle-Based Immunoassays, Lateral Flow, Bioseparations and Immunoprecipitation...
