Description

Description: CytoTrace™ Red fluorescent probe retains the spectral properties of Cy3/TRITC, thus its signal can be easily monitored using fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry. It freely passes through cell membranes and is converted to cell-impermeant products upon reactions with cellular components. The cell-impermeant reaction product is passed to daughter cells through several generations but is not transferred to adjacent cells in the population. Cells that are loaded with CytoTrace™ Red probe is typically fluorescent and viable for at least 24 hours, making this probe an excellent long-term cell tracer. The staining pattern can be fixed with formaldehyde or glutaraldehyde for signal amplification and other applications. Its spectra are well separated from those of GFP or FITC-labeled antibodies, making it an excellent choice for multiplexing with GFP cell lines or FITC-labeled antibodies.
