Cellular Stains: Under the Hood

Subscribe to our eNewsletter to download this poster

There are many different fluorescent probes, including cell stains and protein conjugates, to choose from when designing experiments to visualize cellular properties and morphology. Each of these probes are designed to identify specific cellular structures or processes. The experimental conditions under which these stains perform best varies, so having a clear understanding of their underlying mechanism can be key in deciding which probes will work best in a given experiment.

Download this poster from Biotium to explore the biochemical mechanisms behind commonly used cellular stains, as well as Biotium’s novel cellular stains designed for higher specificity and signal-to-noise.

Poster includes:

• Colorful illustrations of staining mechanisms for viability dyes, organelle stains, apoptosis stains, and more.
• Detailed descriptions for each mechanism and application recommendations
• Great to hang up in the lab, classroom, or office!
