Propidum iodide

Manufactured by Beyotime
Sourced in China

Propidium iodide is a fluorescent dye used in molecular biology for nucleic acid staining. It binds to DNA by intercalating between base pairs. This property allows it to be used as a counterstain in flow cytometry, fluorescence microscopy, and other nucleic acid detection techniques.

Twenty-four hour after transfection, cells were trypsinized and fixed with 70% ethanol for 30 min on ice. RNA was degraded by incubation with 20 mg/ml RNase (Sigma) for 1 h at 37°C. For the cell cycle analysis, cells were stained with propidium iodide at room temperature for 30 min, and then were analyzed by Calibur flow cytometry (BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakers, USA). For cell apoptosis analysis, cells were stained with FITC-Annexin V and propidum iodide (Beyotime, Beijing, China) and then were analyzed by Calibur flow cytometry (BD Biosciences) equipped with CellQuest software (BD Biosciences).

For cell apoptosis analysis, cells at 2 × 105 were washed in ice-cold PBS. Then cells were stained with FITC–annexin V and propidum iodide (Beyotime, Beijing, P.R. China) following the manufacturer’s instructions. Cell apoptosis was analyzed in a flow cytometer (BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA).

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.
