Which stain is used to see mitochondria?
Posted October 21, 2019

Answer

MitoLite™ dyes stain the mitochondria in living cells. They are available in 5 distinct colors, including fixable options for multiplexing with other fluorescent probes.

MitoLite™ dyes use the mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) to selectively accumulate within the mitochondria of live cells, and therefore can be used to monitor membrane potential changes that occur during apoptosis.
