MitoTracker™ Red FM Dye, for flow cytometry

Our MitoTracker dyes for flow cytometry are cell-permeant reagents that label mitochondria in live cells. They are provided at an optimized concentration with protocols for flow cytometry. This allows for more precise analysis with both conventional and spectral flow cytometry. A range of available colors are detected with standard flow cytometry filters.

Features of our MitoTracker dyes for flow cytometry include:
• Bright—allow for easy detection of mitochondria using flow cytometry without the need for special filters
• Robust—allow for generation of high quality and reproducible data
• Convenient—optimized for flow cytometry; all essential reagents for labeling mitochondria in a single kit

Bright
Our Mitotracker dyes for flow cytometry were designed to provide a bright signal with minimal overlap into adjacent channels, simplifying spectral compensation. Since mitochondria can be discriminated using a single flow cytometer channel, these viability dyes are an ideal choice for multi-color experiments. Additionally, their unique spectral fingerprints are a valuable addition to spectral flow cytometry experiments.

Robust
These Mitotracker dyes are cell-permeant mitochondrion-selective dyes. These dyes are consistent, reliable, and stable, allowing for the generation of high-quality data.

Convenient
These dyes have been conveniently packaged at a concentration that is optimal for flow cytometry. Dissolve a vial of dye in anhydrous DMSO to provide enough dye for 20 assays. Use immediately or store at -20°C, minimizing freeze-thaw cycles.

How it works
To label mitochondria, simply incubate cells in the recommended concentrations of the Mitotracker dyes, which passively diffuse across the plasma membrane and accumulate in active mitochondria.

Colors available
Our Mitotracker dyes for flow cytometry are available in a variety of colors to meet your multi-color flow cytometry needs.
