Real-time cell tracking: far-red DRAQ9

A DRAQ™ probe negative for the nucleus?  Whatever next! DRAQ9™ is the latest product to come out of BioStatus’s R&D.  It’s very different from what you’re used to seeing from us however, as DRAQ9™ is nuclear-negative yet plasma membrane permeant and famously far-red fluorescing!   This remarkable and unexpected combination of features means that it […]

Cell Painting in the Far-Red: DRAQ9

A far-red probe for cell painting and mosaics  DRAQ9™ is the latest product to come out of BioStatus’s R&D.  It’s very different from what you’re used to seeing from us however, as DRAQ9™ is nuclear-negative yet plasma membrane permeant and famously far-red fluorescing!   DRAQ9™ labels lipophilic structures in the cytoplasm such as Golgi apparatus, […]

CRRC for motile cells

Scientists at York University, Toronto, led by Prof. Sergey Krylov have developed a methodology that permits the tracking of motile cells for the measurement of Cytometry of Reaction Rate Constant (CRRC).  In essence, CRRC is a valuable tool in understanding tumour cell biology.  One can measure the difference in a chemical reaction’s rate between individual […]

Single tube 3-parameter apoptosis assay

A simple, yet improved (3-parameter, 3-colour) apoptosis assay  The combination of Annexin V binding to detect phosphatidyl serine displayed on inverted plasma membranes of early apoptotic cells and a DNA-binding viability dye that permeates leaky plasma membranes denoting very late apoptotic/dead cells is a widely used simple, low-cost, single tube assay for cellular apoptosis.   […]
