Permeabilization wash buffer

Manufactured by BD
Sourced in United Kingdom, United States

Permeabilization/wash buffer is a laboratory reagent used to facilitate the permeabilization and washing of cells or tissue samples during various analytical procedures. It is designed to create temporary pores in cell membranes, allowing for the introduction or removal of specific molecules or compounds. The buffer's core function is to enable the effective permeabilization and washing of samples, which is a crucial step in many cell-based assays and immunological techniques.

For F-actin staining, IL-2 activated NK cells were serum and cytokine-starved for 4 h. The cells were then left untreated or treated with 10 ng/ml recombinant mouse CCL2/MCP-1 (R&D Systems) for 30 minutes at 37°C. The cells were fixed in suspension with Fixation buffer (BD Biosciences) and 2.5 x 105 cells were cytospun onto microscope slides (Shandon). The slides were then permeabilized with Permeabilization/Wash buffer (BD Biosciences) and stained with rhodamine-conjugated Phalloidin (Invitrogen) followed by mounting with Fluorescent Mounting Media (Vector Labs). The cells were visualized by confocal microscopy with a 63x oil objective on a Leica TCS SP5 Laser Scanning Confocal Microscope, and captured images were analyzed with LAS-AF software. Definiens Tissue Studio version 4.7 was used to analyze the images for green fluorescence intensity. First a nucleus detection algorithm was applied to the DAPI channel to segment nuclei based on intensity and size thresholds. Next a simple growth algorithm of 1 micron was applied to generate a cytoplasm around each nuclei. The intensity for green fluorescence was measure in each cell, nucleus, and cytoplasm.

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.
