Nuclear Red™ DCS1
5 mM DMSO Solution
Our Nuclear Red™ DCS1 is a fluorogenic, DNA-selective and cell-impermeant dye for analyzing DNA content in dead, fixed or apoptotic cells. The Nuclear Red™ DCS1 has its red fluorescence significantly enhanced upon binding to DNA. It can be used in fluorescence imaging, microplate and flow cytometry applications. This DNA-binding dye might be used for multicolor analysis of dead, fixed or apoptotic cells with proper filter sets.
Fluorescence image of HeLa cells stained with with Nuclear Red™ DCS1 and Phalloidin-iFluor® 405 Conjugate. The cells were fixed in 4% formaldehyde, permeabilised with 0.2% Triton X-100 followed by staining with Phalloidin-iFluor® 405 Conjugate (#23111) and counter staining with Nuclear Red™ DCS1 (#17552). The image was acquired with fluorescence microscope using Violet and Cy5 filters.
