Cell Meter™ Fluorimetric Phagocytosis Assay Kit
Green Fluorescence
The Cell Meter™ Fluorimetric Phagocytosis Assay Kit enables robust and sensitive detection of phagocytic activity in live cells using a unique pH-sensitive fluorescent conjugate.
  • pH-activated fluorescence detection: Utilizes Protonex™ Green 500-Zymosan conjugate, a pH-responsive, non-fluorescent probe that fluoresces strongly in acidic phagosomes and phagolysosomes
  • Dual-color assay format: Includes a red fluorescent viability dye to simultaneously assess cell viability (red) and phagocytic function (green)
  • Application versatility: Suitable for immunology research, drug screening, and cellular function analysis using microscopy, flow cytometry, or microplate formats
  • Comparable alternative: Serves as a dual-fluorescence alternative to BioLegend’s Phagocytosis Detection Kit with enhanced acid-activated signal specificity
Examination of phagocytosis in RAW 264.7 cells using Cell Meter™ Fluorimetric Phagocytosis Assay Kit (Cat# 21231). RAW 264.7 cells were incubated with Cytochalasin D (to inhibit phagocytosis) or LPS (to induce phagocytosis) followed by incubation with Protonex™ Green 500-Zymosan Beads in growth medium for 60 minutes and then stained with CytoTrace™ Red for 30 minutes. The images were acquired using Keyence Fluorescence microscopy.
