Cyanoditolyl Tetrazolium Chloride (CTC) [102568-47-8] HU6ad ....................<br />

MW 311.8 mp 230° ~100mg in 6.6cc water Exc max: 450nm Emiss max: 630nm<br />

Cyanoditolyl tetrazolium chloride has been used to measure the redox activity<br />

of tumor cells. It has also been employed for direct epifluorescent microscopic<br />

enumeration of respiring bacteria in food samples and environmental samples,<br />

especially water samples. Reveals a quantitative methodology for measuring<br />

marine bacteria. These methods yield 80% activity in 2 to 10 minutes. Cell<br />

samples mixed with CTC can be stored refrigerated or frozen in liquid nitrogen<br />

for at least 4 weeks without a significant loss of cells. Formazan fluoresces in<br />

solid state. Technical Data Sheet #486<br />

DAB-4HCL (3-3’-Diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride) Immunochemical Grade [7411-49-6] HMVW7bg<br />

MW 360.1<br />

Chromogen of choice for immunoperoxidase techniques. The brown reaction<br />

product is highly insoluble, and will not diffuse from the site of localization. The<br />

color does not fade, and therefore, slides can be saved as a permanent record.<br />

The reaction product also chelates with osmium tetroxide and becomes electron<br />

dense for use in electron microscopy. By adding buffer directly to the DAB<br />

serum vial with a hypodermic syringe, contact with the solid DAB is avoided.<br />

Our DAB-4HCl is prepared to the highest purity standards. It is fully water soluble<br />

and may be used without further purification for immunocytochemistry and<br />

for endogenous oxidases and peroxidase. Technical Data Sheet #164<br />

4’,6-Diamidino-2-phenylindole dihydrochloride (DAPI) [28718-90-3] U3acf ..........<br />

MW 350.25 l max 342nm<br />

A cationic fluorescent dye which specifically binds to adenine-thymine-rich<br />

DNA. Applications include detection of nanogram quantities of DNA in cellular<br />

homogenates, and cytofluorometric determination of the DNA base content in<br />

human chromosomes. Available in bulk quantities for OEM users at significant<br />

savings. Technical Data Sheet #444 Nature, 253, 461 (1975); Anal. Biochem., 92, 497<br />

Fast Blue [74749-42-1] U7g ...................................................<br />

Soluble in: water, lower alcohols<br />

Fluorescent dye commonly used as a neuronal tracer and referred to as a hydrophilic retrograde<br />

tracer. Fast Blue can be used alone or with other types of fluorescent retrograde and<br />

anterograde tracer dyes. Other neuronal tracers such as True Blue, Evans Blue and Nuclear Yellow<br />

are commonly used in conjunction with Fast Blue.<br />
