General description

PKH26 is a red‐fluorescent dye. This lipophilic membrane dye is widely used to determine cell proliferation in heterogeneous cells by flow cytometry.

Application

PKH26 Red Fluorescent Cell Linker Kit is for general cell membrane labeling. It has been characterized in a number of model systems and has been found to be useful for in vitro cell labeling, in vitro proliferation studies and long term, in vivo cell tracking. The half-life for elution of PKH26 from labeled rabbit red blood cells is greater than 100 days. This enhanced stability is favorable for long term in vivo studies.

Articles

Lipophilic cell tracking dyes enable cancer biologists to track tumor and immune cell functions both in vitro and in vivo. Read the article to choose a right membrane dye kit for cell tracking and proliferation monitoring.

Optimal staining is a key component for studying tumorigenesis and progression. Learn useful tips and techniques for dye applications, including examples from recent studies.

PKH and CellVue® Fluorescent Cell Linker Kits provide fluorescent labeling of live cells over an extended period of time, with no apparent toxic effects.

PKH dyes are easy to use and achieve stable, uniform, and reproducible fluorescent labeling of live cells. PKH dyes are non-toxic membrane stains which produce high signal to noise ratio.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
