Cell Viability Stains and Dyes

A common dye enabling accurate assessment of cell viability by selectively staining dead cells, for cell therapy applications

Red-fluorescent DNA stain, membrane impermeant to live cells. Used for: apoptosis detection, nuclear counterstaining, viability staining. Application: flow cytometry, confocal microscopy, fluorescence microscopy

Cell permeable non-fluorescent compound; green-fluorescent in living cells once hydrolyzed. Used for: cell tracing and cell viability monitoring. Application: fluorescent microscopy and flow cytometry

Nucleic acid binding dye. Cell permeable. Used for: cell cycle and apoptosis determination. Application: flow cytometry, fluorescence microscopy

Blue-fluorescent dye for DNA staining. Cell permeable. Used for: nuclear counterstain, apoptosis analysis, fixed and live-cell staining. Application: flow cytometry, confocal microscopy
