Detailed Description
Quick-View™ Fluorescent Viability Stain is a ready-to-use staining reagent for easy discrimination between live and dead mammalian cells. Supplied in an easy-to-use dropper bottle, the single staining solution is a mixture of Acridine Orange for live cell identification and Ethidium Bromide for identification of dead cells. The Acridine Orange stained live cells appear green and Ethidium Bromide stained dead cells appear red when visualized by fluorescence microscopy.
The Quick-View™ Fluorescent Viability Stain is sensitive, fast and reliable. The cells and stain solution are simply mixed 1:1 and are immediately ready for visualization. Washing, incubation and fixation steps are eliminated. The set up, clean up and storage is simple and easy with minimal contact with reagents. The versatile stain can be used for both cells in suspension as well as adherent cells.
