Comments: Using DRAQ5 on the Odyssey to approximate cell numbers is not as sensitive as manual counts of nuclei on a microscope but is much faster and less biased.

Comments: DRAQ5 is incredibly easy to use. Just dilute and add to cells immediately before acquiring days. Dye incorporates quickly into both live and fixed cells. It also gives a nice bright stain of the nucleus that has crisp edges. Post-sales, the company was always readily available for any questions or to help with designing experiments with any of their other products. DRAQ5 is excitement stable, even with left diluted at room temperature and very little dye is needed to stain cells.
