Cell Structure Reagents and Kits
Invitrogen™ SYTOX™ Orange Nucleic Acid Stain - 5 mM Solution in DMSO
Useful as an indicator of cell death
Invitrogen™ Laurdan (6-Dodecanoyl-2-Dimethylaminonaphthalene)
When the lipophlilic probe laurdan is incorporated into membranes, its fluorescence spectra is sensitive to the physical state of the surrounding phospholipids.
Invitrogen™ Dil Stain (1,1'-Dioctadecyl-3,3,3',3'-Tetramethylindocarbocyanine Perchlorate ('DiI'; DiIC18(3)))
DiI is a lipophilic membrane stain that diffuses laterally to stain the entire cell. It is weakly fluorescent until incorporated into membranes.
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™ CellLight™ Peroxisome-GFP, BacMam 2.0
Provides easy way to label peroxisomes with green fluorescent protein in live cells
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™ FilmTracer™ FM™ 1-43 Green Biofilm Cell Stain
Lipophilic styryl compounds suitable for wide variety of studies involving plasma membrane and vesiculation
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.
CellMask™ Green Actin Tracking Stain
Stain and track intracellular F-actin with CellMask Green Actin Tracking Stain in live or fixed cells 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.
CellMask™ Deep Red Actin Tracking Stain
Stain and track intracellular F-actin with CellMask Deep Red Actin Tracking Stain in live or fixed cells 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™ SelectFX™ Nuclear Labeling Kit (DAPI, SYTOX™ Green, 7-AAD, TO-PRO™-3 Iodide), for fixed cells
For staining nuclei in fixed-cell preparations
Invitrogen™ LysoTracker™ Yellow HCK-123, special packaging
Special packaging
Invitrogen™ eBioscience™ Phalloidin eFluor™ 570
Phalloidin is a peptide toxin isolated from the Amanita phalloides mushroom. Phalloidin selectively binds F-actin and functions to stablilize actin polymers by inhibiting the dissociation of actin monomers from the filament ends.
Invitrogen™ BacMam GFP Transduction Control (BacMam 2.0)
Important part of the enhanced BacMam technology
