Manufacturer's response: Dear Zi, It would be helpful to understand what the issue was in more detail. If staining is not stable over time that can be the case in live cells, where after several hours a re-distribution can occur in some cell types, mostly towards lipophilic structures in the cytoplasm (Martin, 2005). If the staining is not stable in fixed cells then this may be due to washing post-staining, too low concentration, or not removing surfactants used in prior cell permeabilisation procedures.

Manufacturer's response: Dear Yuning, thank you for detailed review of DRAQ5. Without seeing examples of the issues you raise it is difficult to give further technical advice. The occasional cytoplasmic staining you describe is often a symptom of understaining or washout due to residual surfactant left over from a prior washing step. Regarding cost, there are a number of other carefully selected suppliers you can choose from and we can advise on the most competitive of these or alternatively order direct from us, the source!

Manufacturer's response: Thanks Héctor, for this entertaining review of DRAQ5! You make a good point too: it is possible to view DRAQ5-positive cells with transmission light microscopy - the nuclei are indeed deep blue (as well as far-red fluorescent)! It’s a convenient way to test for functionality and sample quality (for example prior to FACS) and might even allow for a new breed of assays.

Manufacturer's response: Dear Giulia, thank you for your valued feedback and independent review. If you have a concern over local pricing we can assist by supplying direct. Also, the small cost of a proven, reliable nuclear counterstain that can be used for 1000-2000 slides should be seen against the significant cost of multiple fluorescently-tagged monoclonal antibodies used alongside it and that its far-red emission enables.

Manufacturer's response: Dear Pauline, thank you for the generous review and the constructive suggestion. We have produced a diluted presentation of DRAQ5 (at 500 µM rather than 5 mM). The product code is DR05500 and, having reviewed your protocol, would perhaps allow you to skip the pre-dilution step entirely e.g. 4 µl into a final volume of 100 µl would give a final concentration of 20 µM. Perhaps this might assist you better?
