Nucleolar-ID™ Green detection kit for microscopy



ENZ-51009-500	1 Kit	170.00 USD

Compatible with common live-cell nuclear counterstains (Hoechst 33342, Draq5™, Vybrant® DyeCycle™ Ruby, Nuclear-ID™ Red dyes)
High resistance to photobleaching and concentration quenching, ensuring strong, consistent fluorescence signal, even after extended viewing periods
Validated for utility in live cell imaging applications, demonstrating appropriate response to treatment with well-characterized organelle-perturbation agents
Stringently manufactured, to control and eliminate non-specific assay artifacts

Enzo Life Sciences’ Nucleolar-ID™ Green Detection Kit contains a proprietary dye suitable for live-cell staining of nucleoli. The dye allows examination of nucleolar dynamic changes in intracellular distribution, trafficking and localization arising from biological processes such as the cell cycle and ribosome biogenesis. The kit is compatible with most fluorescence detection systems, including conventional and confocal fluorescence microscopes, as well as High Content Screening (HCS) platforms.

Product Specification

Application:	Specifically designed for visualizing microscopically nucleoli in living cells.

Quality Control:	1. Absorption peak of Nucleolar-ID™ Green dye: λ_max = 439 ± 9 nm 2. % purity of Nucleolar-ID™ Green dye by HPLC: ≥93% 3. A sample from each lot of Nucleolar-ID™ Green Detection Kit is used to stain HeLa cells using the procedures described in the user manual. Cells stained with Nucleolar-ID™ Green Detection Reagent show maximal fluorescence signal within the nucleoli, with only faint fluorescence throughout the nucleus and cytoplasm. Cells induced by actinomycin D show reduction of nucleolar signal.

Quantity:	500 assays

Use/Stability:	With proper storage, the kit components are stable up to the date noted on the product label. Store kit at -20°C in a non-frost free freezer, or -80°C for longer term storage.

Handling:	Avoid freeze/thaw cycles. Protect from light.

Short Term Storage:	-20°C

Long Term Storage:	-80°C

Kit/Set Contains:	Nucleolar-ID™ Green Detection Reagent, 50 µL Actinomycin D Control, 125 µg 10X Assay Buffer, 15 mL

Background / Technical Information:	The Nucleolar-ID™ Green Detection Kit is a member of the CELLestial^® product line, reagents and assay kits comprising fluorescent molecular probes that have been extensively benchmarked for live cell analysis applications. CELLestial^® reagents and kits are optimal for use in demanding imaging applications, such as confocal microscopy, flow cytometry and HCS, where consistency and reproducibility are required.
