HTS / HCS Screening nuclear visualisation
DRAQ5™ is ideal for nuclear localization in HTS/HCS assays...
Why do most serious screeners use DRAQ5™?
- See both nucleus and cytoplasm compartments for translocation events and to assess morphological changes (toxicity)
- Lower hardware costs - Excitation in visible range - lower cost HeNe laser systems cf. UV lasers
- See all library members - No white-out by UV-excited test compounds (ca. 10-15% of libraries)
- Faster assay acquisition with GFP targets Emission in far-red - no spectral overlap with majority of vis. range EXFPs
- Simple labelling protocol - Live (or fixed) cells are efficiently labelled in minutes, in most buffer systems
- See the MDR cells too - DRAQ5™ is NOT pumped out of MDR cells so they will be visible to the imager
