Cell Structure Reagents and Kits
Invitrogen™ CellMask™ Plasma Membrane Stains
Invitrogen CellMask™ plasma membrane stains enable fast and uniform labeling of the plasma membrane in almost all cell types. These stains work rapidly and can be detected using standard microscope filter sets with any imaging instrument.
Invitrogen™ HCS LipidTOX™ Red Neutral Lipid Stain, for cellular imaging
High affinity for neutral lipid droplets
Invitrogen™ DiD' solid; DiIC18(5) solid (1,1'-Dioctadecyl-3,3,3',3'-Tetramethylindodicarbocyanine, 4-Chlorobenzenesulfonate Salt)
When applied to cells, dye diffuses laterally within the plasma membrane
Invitrogen™ HCS CellMask™ Stains
Easily visualize entire cells or individual cell structures during high-content screening (HCS) assays with HCS CellMask stains, which are available in a variety of colors for multiplexing flexibility and can be used immediately after fixation and permeabilization, or after antibody labeling.
Invitrogen™ CellMask™ Orange Actin Tracking Stain
Stain and track intracellular F-actin with CellMask Orange Actin Tracking Stain in live or fixed cells in ICC, IHC, and 3D cell culture. The stain easily permeates live-cell membranes, is retained within the cells after loading, and shows no detectable effects on viability after 24 hours of incubation.
Molecular Probes™ 7-AAD (7-Aminoactinomycin D)
7-aminoactinomycin D (7-AAD) is a fluorescent intercalator that undergoes a spectral shift upon association with DNA.
Invitrogen™ DiR'; DiIC18(7) (1,1'-Dioctadecyl-3,3,3',3'-Tetramethylindotricarbocyanine Iodide)
The near IR fluorescent, lipophilic carbocyanine DiOC18(7) ('DiR') is weakly fluorescent in water but highly fluorescent and quite photostable when incorporated into membranes.
Invitrogen™ SYTOX™ Deep Red Nucleic Acid Stain, for fixed/dead cells
SYTOX Deep Red Nucleic Acid Stain is a high-affinity nucleic acid stain that easily penetrates cells with compromised plasma membranes and yet does not cross the membranes of live cells.
Invitrogen™ ReadyProbes™ Reagent F-Actin Phalloidin Conjugates
Perfect for fixed cells and tissue, ReadyProbes Reagent F-actin phalloidin conjugates offer clear visualization of actin filaments, making it perfect for cell biology, neuroscience, cancer research, and more.
Invitrogen™ Sulforhodamine 101
Water-soluble, nonfixable red fluorescent (excitation/emission maxima approximately 586/605nm) polar tracer
Invitrogen™ ER-Tracker™ Green (BODIPY™ FL Glibenclamide), for live-cell imaging
For live-cell imaging
Invitrogen™ Ethidium Homodimer-1 (EthD-1)
The cell-impermeant viability indicator ethdium homodimer-1 (EthD-1) is a high-affinity nucleic acid stain that is weakly fluorescent until bound to DNA.
Invitrogen™ SYTOX™ Orange Nucleic Acid Stain - 5 mM Solution in DMSO
Useful as an indicator of cell death
