Cell death marker - FAQS.TIPS

28 January 2016 1 3K Report

Hi,

Is anyone familiar with a stain for death cells in living zebrafish.More specifically I am looking for is a staining similar to Propidium Iodide (as in usable in live cells) but with a 405/647 fluorophore.

Any help is appreciated!

Best,

Pieter

Cheers,
