This kit labels mitochondria in living or fixed cells with a green fluorescent dye for visualization of mitochondrial distribution.
Applications
IF, Confocal Microscopy, Flow Cytometry
Assay Type
Quantitative
Principle of Assay
This kit uses a proprietary green fluorescent probe that accumulates in mitochondria and becomes fluorescent in the mitochondrial lipid environment. It is suitable for labeling mitochondria in live cells and can also stain formaldehyde-fixed cells before permeabilization.
Platform
Flow Cytometer, Fluorescence Microscope, Fluorescence Microplate, High Content Imaging
