Calcein am pi staining kit

Manufactured by BestBio
Sourced in China

The Calcein-AM/PI staining kit is a fluorescent dye-based assay designed to assess cell viability. The kit contains Calcein-AM, a non-fluorescent, cell-permeable compound that becomes fluorescent upon hydrolysis by intracellular esterases, and Propidium Iodide (PI), a dye that can only enter cells with compromised membranes. Together, these two dyes allow for the differentiation between live (Calcein-AM positive) and dead (PI positive) cells.

The Calcein-AM/PI staining kit (BestBio) was used to assay the viability of cyt c+/+ and cyt c–/– cells. Cells were harvested at the confluence of 70–80%, transfered to 96-well plate and stained with Calcin-AM and PI. Live cells and dead cells showed green fluorescence and red fluorescence respectively.

All the ultra-pure water used in the experiments was purified by a Mili-Q A10 filtration system (Milipore, Billerica, MA, United States). Phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) was obtained from Solarbio (Beijing, China). Low glucose Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium (LGDMEM), fetal bovine serum (FBS), and streptomycin double antibody were obtained from Gibco (Grand Island, NY, United States). Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) stain dye solution was purchased from Thermo Fisher Scientific Co., Ltd. (Shanghai, China). Calcein-AM-PI staining kit were obtained from Bestbio (Nanjing China). Rhodamine-phalloidin was obtained from Solarbio (Beijing, China). Opioid receptor antibody, the voltage-gated Na (+) channel subtype Nav1.7 antibody, and the P substance receptor antibody were purchased from Abcam (MA, United States).

Assessing Isolated Cancer Cell Viability

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The Calcein-AM/PI staining kit (BestBio)
was used to assay the viability of isolated cancer cells. Live cells
and dead cells showed green and red fluorescence, respectively. For
the verification of cell proliferation ability before and after filtration,
the isolated cancer cells were cultured at 37 °C in a humidified
incubator (5% CO2). The number of cells was counted at
days 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, and the growth curve was plotted and fit by
a growth formula.

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.
