General description

This kit provides enough dye for up to 25 samples of 20 million cells each and enough diluent for up to 5 samples of 20 million cells each, when using a 2 mL final staining volume containing a final concentration of 2 x 10-6 M of PKH26 dye. Users must determine the optimal dye and cell concentrations from their cell type(s) and experimental purposes.

Application

PKH26 red fluorescent cell linker mini kit has been used for:
  • labelling microglial, natural killer cells and preadipocytes
  • tracking of viable transplanted adipose-derived stem cells
  • in vitro proliferation studies of bone marrow stem cells
  • general cell membrane labeling, including for in vitro cell labeling and long term in vivo cell tracking.
