Hoechst Staining for Apoptosis Evaluation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A Hoechst Staining Kit was purchased from Solarbio Science & Technology Co., Ltd (Beijing, China). The cells were seeded in a 24-well plate with density of 2.5×104 cells/well. After treated with predesigned concentrations of EVO (1, 2, 4 and 8 μM for 143B cells; 0.5, 1, 2 and 4 μM for MG63 cells) or DMSO for 48h, the cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde solution for 10 min, washed with PBS, stained with 200μL Hoechst 33258 per well for 30 min under dark condition and then washed twice with PBS. Finally, the stained cells were visualized at a magnification of 200× and counted from 5 randomly selected fields using a fluorescence microscope (ECLIPSE Ti, Nikon, 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.
