Invitrogen™ Kit de viabilité bactérienne LIVE/DEAD™ BacLight™

LIVE/DEAD™ BacLight™ Bacterial Viability Kits are easy-to-use fluorescent staining kits commonly used for assessing the viability of bacterial cells. These kits provide a two-color fluorescence assay of bacterial viability using green and red fluorescent dyes for use with imaging, flow, and assays.

The LIVE/DEAD BacLight Bacterial Viability Kits are convenient and easy-to-use kits for monitoring the viability of bacterial populations based on the membrane integrity of the cell. These kits provide a two-color fluorescence assay of bacterial viability for a diverse array of bacterial genera. Cells with a compromised membrane that are dead or dying will stain red with propidium iodide, whereas cells with an intact membrane will stain green with SYTO™ 9. These kits enable researchers to differentiate between live and dead bacteria within minutes, even in mixed populations with diverse bacterial types through fluorescent imaging, flow cytometry, and microplate assays.
