Invitrogen™ LIVE/DEAD™ Viability/Cytotoxicity Assay Kit (Green/Deep Red)

Description

A two-color fluorescent cell viability assay that simultaneously identifies live and dead cells. Live cells are labeled with calcein dye and emit a green fluorescence, while dead cells are labeled with SYTOX Deep Red dye and emit a red fluorescence.

LIVE/DEAD™ Viability/Cytotoxicity Assay Kit (Green/Deep Red)

• A two-color fluorescent cell viability assay that simultaneously identifies live and dead cells
• Live cells are labeled with calcein dye and emit a green fluorescence
• Dead cells are labeled with SYTOX Deep Red dye and emit a red fluorescence
• Dyes can be multiplexed with other orange/red fluorophores with compatible filter sets
• Kit is suitable for use with fluorescence microscopes or high content analysis (HCA) fluorescence multiwall plate scanners
• Easily adaptable for use other fluorescence detection systems
• Assay principles are general and applicable to most eukaryotic cell types, including adherent and non-adherent cells
