2 7 dichlorofluorescein diacetate dcf da

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States, Germany, United Kingdom

2′,7′-dichlorofluorescein diacetate (DCF-DA) is a fluorogenic compound that is commonly used as a molecular probe in cell-based assays. It is a non-fluorescent molecule that becomes fluorescent upon hydrolysis and oxidation within cells, making it useful for measuring intracellular oxidative stress and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels.

ROS production was measured using the fluorogenic probe 2',7'-dichlorofluorescein diacetate (DCF-DA) (Sigma) as described previously (Korashy and El-Kadi 2012) (link). Briefly, HepG2 cells were seeded in dark 96 well plate and incubated with the B[a]P (0-50 nM) for 24 hours. In protection experiment, cells were exposed to B[a]P 50 nM or co-exposed to either BC, BA8C, retinol or RA (1, 5, 10 or 20 nM). The cells were then stained with DCF-DA (5 µM) for 1 hour at 37°C. The fluorescence intensity was measured at excitation and emission wavelengths of 485 and 535 nm, respectively, using a 96-well plate reader (Baxter, Deerfield, IL). Each treatment was represented by five wells. Each experiment was repeated twice to confirm replication of the obtained results.

Oxidative Stress Induction in MB49 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
MB49 cells were seeded in 96-well black wall plates
(Corning, NY, USA) at a concentration of 1 × 105 cells/well
and exposed to a complete medium with Ti(OH)4 activated
for 1 h with visible light. A solution of 10 μmol/L of H2O2 was used (30 min of exposure) as a positive
control to induce oxidative stress in the cells. Cells without any
treatment were used as a negative control. After the exposure period,
the cells were washed with PBS (1×) and labeled with 30 μL
of a 100 μmol/L solution of 2′,7′-dichlorofluorescein
diacetate (DCF-DA) (Sigma-Aldrich, USA). Fluorescence readings were
taken using the Spectra Max i3 (Molecular Devices) with 485–530
nm excitation.74 (link)

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.
