Smart Apps Dead Cell Exclusion - making it easy The multi-beam excitation of DRAQ7™ means you can easily get rid of dead cells from your flow cytometry analysis and sorting experiments WITHOUT compensation or using any of your fluorescence channels!! Download the CYTO2014 poster reprint HERE |
Featured Articles What's exciting us at BioStatus Trace the binding of DRAQ5™ labeled infective viral-like particles to target host cells REF: Thwaites et al. J. Biol. Chem. (2014) 289: 30426-30442. See our APPNOTE on live cell imaging with DRAQ5™ |
Key Techniques Sorting living cells for high-resolution imaging CyGEL™ makes it possible to sort living non-adherent cells onto slides while retaining their 3-D morphology. If you want, you can get them back afterwards too!! (Sinkora & Sinkorova. 2014 J Immunol 193: 5023-5032). See the APPNOTE |
Read All About Us What our customers really think of BioStatus products Read independent reviews here: DRAQ5™ - proven far-red fluorescent DNA dye for LIVE or fixed cell analysis DRAQ7™ - far-red fluorescent DNA dye the ONLY stains the nuclei of dead and permeabilised cells CyGEL™ - a novel thermoreversible gel that is compatible with LIVE cells and organisms CyGEL Sustain™ - a novel thermoreversible gel for extended imaging of LIVE cells and zebrafish embryos |
Focus On... Fluorescence Microscopy BioStatus products are proven problem solvers for fluorescence microscopy. DRAQ5™ and CyTRAK Orange™ avoid the UV excitation needed for DAPI or Hoechst, so you don’t have to queue for a UV-microscope and they allow multi-colour microscopy. Plus, they can be used in live or fixed cells for maximum flexibility and assay transfer. DRAQ7™, uniquely, makes it possible to monitor cell death in real-time and works with cells, microtissues, spheroids and explant cultures. You can see the dedicated application notes and reference lists on each product’s main page using the links above. |
New Product Spotlight HypoxiTRAK™ HypoxiTRAK™ is a novel reporter of the hypoxic experience of individual cells. The retained far-red fluorescence is proportional to the hypoxia and is dependent upon a true hypoxia phenotype. HypoxiTRAK™ can be used in flow cytometry or fluorescence imaging.
