Fluorescent-labeled Secondary Antibodies and Streptavidins
Application: Immunofluorescence Staining
(Laser Scanning Microscope: Olympus FLUOVIEW FV 3000)
Green: α-Tubulin，Blue: Nuclear DNA
The HeLa cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde, and permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100.
Then, the specimen was blocked in BSA/PBS blocking buffer.
Subsequently, the specimen was incubated with properly diluted primary antibody (Mouse Anti α-Tubulin IgG). And, after washing, was further incubated with biotin-conjugated secondary antibody (Goat Anti-Mouse IgG Biotin Conjugate [G0387]).
Finally, it was rinsed with PBS and stained with each fluorescent-probe*.

Cell Proliferation Assay Reagent
Resazurin solution [R0195] can be used quantitatively determine cell proliferation, viability, and cytotoxicity.
Resazurin, when added to viable cells, is reduced by the cellular enzymatic or chemical reactions converting blue/non-fluorescent resazurin to highly fluorescent resorufin.
The assay is simple to perform since the indicator is water-soluble and has low toxicity, thus eliminating the washing/fixing and extraction steps required in other commonly used cell proliferation assays.

Dead Cell Staining Dye
Acridine orange is a nucleic acid staining dye that is used to identify dead cells. It intercalates with the double-stranded DNA base pairs at a ratio of 1:3 and is capable of emitting green fluorescence (Ex: 500 nm, Em: 520 nm). It also emits red fluorescence (Ex: 460 nm, Em: 650 nm) when bound to RNA or single-stranded DNA. Since acridine orange is mutagenic, this product is supplied as a solution that prevents it from splashing during weighing.

Application: The method of staining cells by A3396
NIH3T3 cells stained by A3396
- Remove the medium from the culture plate and wash the cells twice with cold PBS(-). Remove the PBS(-).
- Add PBS(-) and Acridine Orange solution [A3396] (1/50th of the volume of the added PBS(-)) and incubate for 15 minutes.
- Remove the staining solution and wash the cells twice with PBS(-).
- Add PBS(-) and observe the cells under a fluorescence microscope.
Please adjust the staining duration and the volume of the solution according to the cell density.
Some cells may require prior fixation; therefor optimization of the protocol according to your need is recommended.
λDNA was stained using either the acridine orange solution [A3396] or the other manufacturer's product, and the fluorescence measured from two experiments was compared (Ex:500nm, Em:520nm).
The results indicated that A3396 stained better than the other manufacturer's product.
Chemiluminescence Reagent for the Detection of Superoxide in Mitochondria

MMT [B4339] is a specific probe having lucigenin-like chemiluminescence to superoxide among reactive oxygen species. Since amphiphilic MMT which is less hydrophilic than lucigenin possesses cell-permeability, MMT has been applicable for the detection of intramitochondrial superoxide production.

Europium Fluorophore DTBTA-Eu3+-labeled Secondary Antibodies and Streptavidin
S0993: Detect major band that corresponded to Streptavidin DTBTA-Eu3+.
G0505: Detect 2 major bands that corresponded to the heavy chains and light chains of Goat Anti Mouse IgG DTBTA-Eu3+.
DTBTA-Eu3+ Advantages
- No cross talk of excitation light
Excitation wavelength λex, max = 335 nm
Emission wavelength λem, max = 616 nm
Sharpened emission spectrum
Large Stokes shift (the difference in wavelength between positions of the band maxima of the absorption and emission spectra)
- Stable fluorescence in various aqueous buffers
Available in Tris, TE, PBS, etc. for wide use
- Long fluorescent life time (τ = 1.02 ms)
Time-resolved fluorometric measurement can remove background fluorescence from the sample matrix and often gives detectability better than one order of magnitude compared to those of conventional fluorometric assays.
Note: Sensitive detection of DTBTA-Eu3+ labeled probes requires time-resolved fluorometric measurements.
