LumiTracker ER Green (ER-Tracker™ Green) is a green-fluorescent dye designed for live-cell imaging of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). It binds to ATP-sensitive potassium channels in the ER, enabling clear visualization of its structure and dynamics.
Key Features:
- ER-Specific Staining: Selectively targets the ER, providing precise and clear fluorescence.
- Live-Cell Compatibility: Works well for real-time imaging without affecting cell viability.
- Fixation Retention: Partially retains its fluorescence after formaldehyde fixation, supporting additional analyses.
LumiTracker ER Green Applications:
- ER Visualization: Highlights ER structures in live cells for microscopy studies.
- Cell Biology Research: Assists in studying protein synthesis, folding, and ER-related cellular functions.
How to Use:
- Preparation: Dissolve the dye in DMSO to create a stock solution. Dilute to the appropriate concentration before use.
- Storage: Keep the stock solution at -20°C, away from light, and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Note: Glibenclamide, the active binding component, may influence ER function. Verify staining performance based on specific cell types, as expression levels may vary.
LumiTracker ER Green is a powerful tool for studying the ER in live cells, making it essential for research in cell biology and molecular imaging.
