Propidium iodide

Manufactured by Keygene
Sourced in China

Propidium iodide (PI) is a fluorescent dye used in molecular biology and flow cytometry applications. It is a nucleic acid intercalator that binds to DNA. PI can be used to stain and identify cells with compromised cell membranes, which is commonly associated with cell death.

Flow Cytometry Analysis of Apoptosis

Flow cytometry analysis was conducted as described above [12 , 13 (link)]. Cells (8 × 103) were seeded into 6-well plates and cultured for 24 h. After culture with DDP and Miao for 48 h, cells (1 × 105/ml) were collected and suspended in 1 mL binding buffer containing 10 µL Annexin V-FITC and 10 µL propidium iodide (PI) (Keygene Biotech, China). After incubation for 10 min in the dark, apoptosis was measured through flow cytometry. The apoptotic rate was scored by quantifying late apoptosis or necrosis cells (Annexin V-FITC+ PI+) and early apoptosis (Annexin V-FITC+ PI−).

After cell transfection, the supernatant and cells were collected through centrifugation. The precipitates were suspended in 600 μL binding buffer and added with 5 μL Annexin V-FITC (KeyGene Biotech, China). After mixing, 5 μL propidium Iodide (PI) (KeyGene Biotech, China) was added, and the reaction was conducted at room temperature in a dark environment for 15 min. Flow cytometry was used to detect the percentage of cell apoptosis.

Cell apoptosis was determined through Flow cytometry. The cells were digested by trypsin and collected. Following resuspension in 500 μl binding buffer, the cells were added with 5 μl Annexin V-FITC and 5 μl Propidium Iodide (PI) (KeyGene, Nanjing, China) at room temperature in the dark for 15 min. The cells were subsequently tested by flow cytometry.

Cell Cycle and Apoptosis Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For cell cycle assay, A549/Taxol and H1299/Taxol cells were collected after transection and fixed in ethanol (70%; Beyotime) for 12 h at −20℃. After fixation, the cells were harvested via centrifugation, followed by addition of propidium iodide (PI; KeyGene) and RNase A (Beyotime). FACScan® flow cytometry was employed to detect cell cycle distribution.
For detection of cell apoptosis, the transfected cells were harvested. After suspending in binding buffer (0.5 ml), cells were labeled with Annexin V‐FITC and PI (Beyotime), followed by measurement of apoptotic cells with FACScan® flow cytometry.

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.
