Fluorescence Kits for Studying Irreversible Electroporation

• LIVE/DEAD™ Viability/Cytotoxicity Kit

  This kit provides a two-color fluorescence assay that allows for the simultaneous determination of live and dead cells, using calcein AM and ethidium homodimer-1 respectively. Ideal for assessing cell viability after irreversible electroporation.

• CellROX™ Oxidative Stress Reagents

  These reagents are designed to measure reactive oxygen species (ROS) in live cells. The fluorescent probes can be used to evaluate oxidative stress, which is a common consequence of irreversible electroporation.

• Annexin V-FITC Apoptosis Detection Kit

  This kit detects apoptosis by binding Annexin V-FITC to phosphatidylserine on the surface of apoptotic cells. It is useful for identifying cells undergoing apoptosis after irreversible electroporation.

• Propidium Iodide Staining Solution

  Propidium iodide (PI) is a red-fluorescent nucleic acid stain that is impermeant to live cells but stains dead cells. It is commonly used to assess cell membrane integrity post-electroporation.

• SYTOX™ Green Nucleic Acid Stain

  SYTOX™ Green is a high-affinity nucleic acid stain that easily penetrates cells with compromised membranes, making it excellent for detecting dead cells in a population of electroporated cells.
