Muse Count &Viability Assay Kit (200X) - 100 Tests

Description:
Muse Count &Viability (200X) for difficult samples
Trade Name:
Qty/Pk:
100 Tests
Product Overview:
The Muse™ Count & Viability Reagent (200X) was developed for absolute cell count and viability determination of
difficult cell samples. It is designed to address the need for a compatible reagent for non-mammalian cell lines, such
as SF-9 insect cells. These cells prefer significantly lower pH and higher osmolarity than mammalian cells for optimal
viability. The reagent contains the same fluorescent DNA-binding dyes used in Muse™ Count & Viability Reagent, but
in a highly concentrated formulation. These dyes have differential permeability to viable and non-viable cells, and
providing absolute cell count and viability data on cell suspensions from a variety of cultured cell lines. Both viable
and non-viable cells are differentially stained based on their permeability to the DNA-binding dyes in the reagent.
Data generated using the Muse™ Cell Analyzer with the Muse™ software provides:
• viable cell count (cells/mL)
• total cell count (cells/mL)
• % viability of sample
Muse™ Count & Viability Reagent (200X) allows you to assay a greater variety of cell types on the Muse™ Cell
Analyzer. You can use Count & Viability Reagent (200X) to prepare a custom formulation of reagent in a buffer or
medium compatible with your special cell line. Count & Viability Reagent (200X) can be added directly to the cell
sample for counting. This allows direct and rapid determination of absolute cell count and viability with dilute cell
samples, down to 1 x 104 cells/mL.
Muse™ Count & Viability Reagent (200X) can be used to prepare a more concentrated, custom formulation of Muse™
Count & Viability Reagent, which may reduce incubation time and optimize fluorescent signals for cell lines that
stain less efficiently. Count & Viability Reagent (200X) allows assessment of absolute cell count and viability of
challenging cell samples rapidly, reliably, and conveniently.
