Ghost Dye™ Violet 540

Ghost Dye™ Violet 540 is an amine reactive viability dye that can be used to discriminate viable from non-viable mammalian cells in flow cytometry applications. This dye irreversibly binds free amines available on the cell surface as well as intracellular free amines exposed in cells with compromised cell membranes. Necrotic cells with compromised membranes will react with significantly more Ghost Dye™ Violet 540 dye than viable cells in the same sample and therefore will exhibit much greater fluorescence intensity allowing exclusion of these cells from analysis.   PRODUCT DETAILS Excitation Laser: Violet (405 nm) Emission: 537 Format: Ghost Dye™ Violet 540, Viability Dye Application: Flow Cytometry Storage: -20°C protected from light and moisture Formulation: 1 µL/test in DMSO Data Sheets: TDS | SDS Protocol: Download Protocol   PREPARATION & STORAGEGhost Dye™ Violet 540 is provided in solution prepared in anhydrous DMSO and should be protected from light and moisture.
