DRAQ5™ solution 5 mM fluorescent probe
Supplier: Thermo Scientific
The Thermo Scientific DRAQ5™ Fluorescent Probe is a far-red DNA stain for live or fixed cells and easy multiplexing with other fluorophores, such as cells expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusion proteins.
DRAQ5™ Fluorescent Probe is a far-red DNA stain for fluorescent cellular imaging applications with live or fixed cells. Because of its far-red excitation and emission, the DRAQ5 Stain can be multiplexed with many other fluorophores. It is commonly chosen to counterstain nuclei and measure DNA content in cell proliferation studies involving cells expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusion proteins. DRAQ5 Fluorescent Probe is compatible with many existing protocols across a wide range of instrumentation platforms.
Features of the DRAQ5 Fluorescent Probe:
DRAQ5 dye—a red-to-infrared fluorescent stain specific for DNA (nuclei and DNA quantitation)
Convenient—provided as easy-to-use DRAQ5 dye solutions (5 mM)
Cellular imaging—lipophilic and membrane permeable dye is effective for live-cell and fixed-cell staining and quantitation of DNA content
Counterstain—ideal for use alongside other fluorophore reporters for fluorescence microscopy or high-content screening (HCS)
Applications:
Flow cytometry
Flow and laser scanning cytometry
Live cell imaging
Cell based assays
