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.

.........................................

Manufacturer's response: The initial review posting elicited an immediate technical support response. After successful testing of both fresh DRAQ5 and DRAQfx (for comparison) in the customer’s lab the issue was isolated to the presence of 0.3% Triton X-100 during the final counterstaining step. This was remedied by an intermediate wash with PBS. This learning will be reflected in our products’ technical data sheets for fixed cell immunofluorescence protocols.

Comments: The product is very easy to use and I followed the manufacturer's instructions. It works very well and does staind the nuclei. Unfortunately 6 months after opening the quality got lower since precipitates were shown in my images. I kept it at 4° as requested. It would be useful to be able to buy smaller aliquots for labs only using it to stained fixed cells.

Manufacturer’s response: The presence of precipitates in the vial is most unusual and could only be a result of contamination or freezing (accidental, most usually). We would like to have explored this with you at the time you saw this. Your comment about smaller quantities for fixed cell staining is well made - we have developed a product exactly of this nature - please see DRAQfx which is specifically for fixed cells, provided in a convenient dropper bottle. <A replacement vial of DRAQ5 was provided free-of-charge>.

Comments: We used DRAQ5 for labeling our bacteria of interest for live imaging the bug during its intracellular life inside host cells.

Manufacturer's response: Thank you Anirban! Yes, DRAQ5 will also work for fixed cell fluorescence microscopy. You can use it prior to fixation, but more usually it is used AFTER fixation of the sample. We also have a new convenience alternative - DRAQfx FIX & GO - which has been specifically designed for the latter use and may exhibit less cytoplasmic background, though typically this is extremely low.

Comments: My colleagues and I could see a clear and bright signal even with low laser power. There was never an issue of poor dye penetration into 3D cellular aggregates, as would otherwise be observed with more common nuclear dyes, such as Hoechst . The quality of staining is usually consistent across experiments  and among different colleagues. This follows that our results were also consistent across experiments. The dye was stable after repeated uses, and the signal intensity of DRAQ7 did not decrease with repeated use. Moreover, as it is simply added to cell culture media, it fits easily into any experimental design.  I would recommend DRAQ7 to other researchers for its stability, fluorescence quality and its convenience of use. One suggestion for improvement would be to create versions in other fluorescence colors instead of just one which is presently APC.

 Average rating:          3.7

Comments: The product works very well and can be re-used. I used it as an alternative to DAPI and Hoechst, to stain cellular DNA within the nucleus, because the CLSM system we use does not have a 405 nm laser line. The main problem of this product is that it is very expensive when compared to other stains such as the ones mentioned above. Indeed for such application I would not recommend it. However, it is ideal for live cell imaging experiments since it is cell permeable and the 633 laser used for its excitation is much less phototoxic as compared to the 405 one.

Name: Gualtiero Alvisi

.........................................

Manufacturer's response: Dear Gualtiero, Thanks for your considered review of DRAQ5 and we note your comment on cost. DRAQ5 is second generation DNA probe that enables live or fixed cell counterstaining and avoids UV exposure as you rightly observe, plus with much lower photo-bleaching and remarkable shelf stability. Being red-excited it also enables use of the new violet-excited chromophores to extend channel capacity. Bearing these significant benefits in mind, the cost per slide of around 30 eurocents (based on 5uM, 200ul per slide, 200ul pack list price) would seem to be not unreasonable!
