Hoechst 33258 staining kit

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States

Hoechst 33258 Staining Kit is a fluorescent dye-based laboratory reagent used for the detection and visualization of DNA in biological samples. The kit contains the Hoechst 33258 dye, which selectively binds to adenine-thymine (A-T) rich regions of DNA, allowing for the identification and quantification of DNA content in cells or tissues.

143B cells were seeded in 6-well plates and treated with cinobufagin and CDDP alone and in combination for 48 h. Then, each well were stained according to the protocol of Hoechst 33258 Staining Kit (Sigma). After incubation for 30 minutes away from light, the cells were photographed with an inverted fluorescence microscope. bright-blue fluorescent and condensed nuclei were designated as apoptotic cells.

Hoechst 33258 Staining for Apoptosis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Hoechst 33258 Staining Kit (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) was used for this assay. The cells were incubated in a 6-well plate for 24 h and further treated with or without baicalein for 24 h. Subsequently, cells were stained according to the instructions and then observed under an inverted fluorescence microscope (Olympus) (×200). Cells were designated as apoptotic cells based on nuclear morphology changes, such as bright-blue fluorescent and condensed nuclei.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
