Actin tracker red rhodamine

Manufactured by Beyotime
Sourced in China

Actin-Tracker Red-Rhodamine is a fluorescent probe designed to specifically label and visualize actin filaments in cells. It consists of a rhodamine-based fluorophore conjugated to a molecule that binds to actin. This allows for the direct labeling and observation of the actin cytoskeleton within living or fixed cells using fluorescence microscopy techniques.

A Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) (M4839, AbMole, China) was used to assess the viability of the rBMSCs seeded in all groups. Briefly, control and experimental Ti surfaces were placed in 24-well plates and seeded with 1 ×104 rBMSCs/mL DMEM. All the samples were cultured at 37 °C in 5% CO2, and the media was changed every 3 days. After 1, 4, and 7 days, the specimens were removed from the 24-well plate and washed three times with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) before being transferred to new 24-well plates. Then, 500 µl of media containing 10% CCK-8 solution was added to each well, which was followed by 2 h of incubation, after which the optical density (OD) of the media was read at 450 nm. After 3 days, the cells were stained with DAPI Staining Solution (Beyotime Biotechnology, China) and Actin-Tracker Red-Rhodamine (Beyotime Biotechnology, China) for cytoskeleton analysis via an inverted epifluorescence microscope (IX71, Olympus, Japan).

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.
