Note:Eachcelllineshouldbeevaluatedonanindividualbasistodeterminetheoptimalcelldensityforproliferationorcytotoxicityinduction.Forproliferation,usefewercells,andfortoxicityassays,usemorecellstostartwith.

 

2.PrepareCalceinDeepRed^™workingsolution(for1plate):

2.1   Preparea2to5mMstocksolutionofCalceinDeepRed^™inhigh-quality,anhydrousDMSO.Thestocksolutionshouldbeusedpromptly;anyremainingsolutionshouldbealiquotedandrefrozenat<-20^oC.

Note:Avoidrepeatedfreeze-thawcycles,andprotectfromlight.

 

2.2   PrepareCalceinDeepRed^™workingsolution:Onthedayoftheexperiment,eitherdissolveCalceinDeepRed^™solidinDMSOorthawanaliquotoftheCalceinDeepRed^™stocksolutiontoroomtemperature.Preparea5to10µMCalceinDeepRed^™workingsolutioninHanksand20mMHepesbuffer(HHBS)orbufferofyourchoicepH7,with2.5mMprobenicid.

Note1:10mLofCalceinDeepRed^™workingsolutionisnotstableatroomtemperature;preparefreshbeforeuse.
