DRAQ7: a unique real-time cell health monitor


DRAQ7™ enables real-time toxicity and viability assays

  • DRAQ7™ is non-toxic to cells over several days exposure
  • DRAQ7™ does not alter dose-response profiles for anti-cancer agents
  • DRAQ7™ gives a sensitive real-time readout for cell death induced by hypoxia, starvation, drug treatment .. 
  • DRAQ7™ has full spectral compatibility with Hoechst 33342, FITC/GFP and the orange/red MMP probes
