Cell Viability kit
Cell Meter™ Cell Viability Assay Kit *Green Fluorescence*
This kit uses the non-fluorescent calcein AM that becomes strongly fluorescent upon entering into live cells.Calcein AM is a hydrophobic compound that easily permeates intact live cells. The hydrolysis of the non-fluorescent calcein AM by intracellular esterases generates the strongly fluorescent hydrophilic calcein that is well-retained in the cell cytoplasm.
The esterase activity is proportional to the number of vial cells, and thus directly related to the fluorescence intensity of calcein generated from the esterase-catalyzed hydrolysis of calcein AM. Cells grown in black-walled plates can be stained and quantified in less than two hours. The assay is more robust than the tetrazolium salt or Alarmar Blue™-based assays. It can be readily adapted for high-throughput assays in a wide variety of fluorescence platforms such as microplate assays, immunocytochemistry and flow cytometry. It is useful for a variety of studies, including cell adhesion, chemotaxis, multidrug resistance, cell viability, apoptosis and cytotoxicity. The kit provides all the essential components with an optimized cell-labeling protocol. It is suitable for proliferating and non-proliferating cells, and can be used for both suspension and adherent cells. Using 100μl of reagents per well in a 96-well format, this kit provides sufficient reagents to perform 500 assays. Using 25μl of reagents per well in a 384-well format, this kit provides sufficient reagents to perform 2000 assays.

Kit Components
Component A : CytoCalcein™ Green 5 vials, lyophilized
Component B : DMSO 1 vial (200 μL)
Component C : Assay Buffer 1 bottle (50 mL)
Brief Summary
→ Prepare cells with test compounds
→ Add the same volume of dye-loading solution (100 μL for 96-well plate or 25 μL for 384-well plate)
→ Incubate at room temperature or 37℃ for 1 hr
→ Read Fluorescence at Ex/Em = 490/525 nm
