Comments: Excellent and reliable staining of the nuclei! The only drawback is that sometimes it stains more than just the nuclei. It helped with the cell counting program.

Manufacturer's response: Thank you for your review of DRAQ5. DRAQ5 does have a useful weak secondary staining of the cytoplasm which HCS labs use to segment the cell envelope, by increasing the gain. An unwanted inversion staining (“hollow” nuclei) is a consequence of too low a concentration of DRAQ5. We strongly recommend 5 uM for fixed cells and 5-10 uM for live cells. We would be very happy to discuss this and troubleshoot the issue to try to resolve it.

"Standard nuclei/DNA counterstain in our lab for more than 15 years!"

Comments: Super easy to use, just add it to your secondary antibody solution in immunofluorescence studies (cells and tissues), and you get reproducible stainings of your nuclei with excitation/emission wavelenghts that do not interfere with other common flurophores used in multiple immunofluorescence stainings.

Comments: DRAQ7 is a very stable and easy-to-use dye. We carefully titrated dye using fix/perm approach after the staining for 7 surface markers. After optimization of the staining protocol we achieved strong signal with an easy discrimination of nucleated cell from the cellular debris and fat particles. Samples were analysed on Navios flow cytometer.
