Comments: Very easy to use (one step direct staining), did not work well with cat  blastocyst though - we have no explanation why.  Very stable (at least 6 weeks in refrigerator after mounting on slides). It took some time to order to Sweden (through middle steps, not sure if we used the right channels). Equivalent to Hoechst or DAPI but more expensive. Excellent for our confocal that does not have a blue laser.
