Reagents > CellVue® Burgundy Fluorescent Cell Labeling Kit

The CellVue Burgundy cell labeling kit uses proprietary membrane labeling technology to stably incorporate CellVue Burgundy, a fluorescent dye with long aliphatic tails, into lipid regions of the cell membrane1. The labeling buffer provided with the kit (Diluent C) is an iso-osmotic aqueous solution which contains no physiologic salts or buffers, detergents, or organic solvents and is designed to maintain cell viability while maximizing dye solubility and staining efficiency. The labeling efficiency of staining is dependent upon the cell type being labeled and the membranes of the cells2, 3.
CellVue Burgundy 细胞标记试剂盒使用专有的膜标记技术,将具有长脂肪族尾巴的荧光染料 CellVue Burgundy 稳定地结合到细胞膜的脂质区域1。 试剂盒随附的标记缓冲液(稀释剂 C)是一种等渗水溶液,不含生理盐或缓冲液、去污剂或有机溶剂,旨在保持细胞活力,同时最大限度地提高染料溶解度和染色效率。 染色的标记效率取决于被标记的细胞类型和细胞膜2、3。
Use NIR Fluorescent Labeling for Cell Tracking and Cell Proliferation Studies
CellVue products have been reported to be useful for short-term in vitro cell proliferation studies4, cell tracking in isolated organ preparation applications5, and cell tracking using the Pearl® Small Animal Imaging System or Odyssey® CLx or Odyssey Classic Infrared Imaging System6.
