    Name: Rohit Sharma
    Species: Human
    Assay Type: In Vitro
    Cell Line/Tissue: Jurkat Cells
    PI was used in the cell cycle analysis of Jurkat cells. The cell pellet of the treated cells was resuspended in 200 μL propidium iodide (PI) solution containing 50 μg/mL PI, 0.1 mg/mL RNase A, and 0.05% Triton X-100 (v/v) (prepared in 1X PBS buffer). The cells were incubated for 30 min. in the dark at room temperature and by agitating every 10 mins. After incubation, the samples were analyzed using the flow cytometer.

  • Propidium dye for intracellular fluorescent dye.
    Name: Anonymous
    Species: Mouse
    Assay Type: Ex Vivo
    Propidium Iodide was used as an intracellular fluorescent dye. Picture is of the glass electrode with a 5mM solution. 250uM was also tried but had poor visibility.
    5mM is great for visualization with an mcherry filter. It goes into water well.
