Product Description
Br-DAPI is a labeling dye of the DAPI series. DAPI is a fluorescent dye that binds strongly to DNA. DAPI binds to the A/T base pairs of the minor groove of double-stranded DNA (one DAPI molecule can occupy 3 base pair positions), thereby amplifying the fluorescence intensity approximately 20 times. DNA can be measured by looking at the intensity of the fluorescence. DAPI is frequently used to stain both live and fixed cells because it can also pass through intact cell membranes. How to store: Keep out of direct sunlight.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Usage instructions 1. Creating the functioning DAPI solution 1.1 Getting the stock solution ready To make a 1 mg/mL stock solution, dilute 1 milligram of DAPI with 1 mL of double-distilled water. It is advised to aliquot the DAPI storage solution and keep it in the dark at -20°C or -80°C. 1.2 Making a functional solution To make a 1-10 μg/mL DAPI working solution, use either PBS dilution storage solution or hot serum-free cell culture media. Note: Before using the DAPI working fluid, please make sure that its concentration is appropriate for the current circumstances. 2. Staining of suspended cells 2.1 Centrifuge the cells to collect them, then add PBS and wash twice for five minutes each time. There are 1×106 cells per milliliter. 2.2 Add 1 milliliter of DAPI working solution, then let it sit at room temperature for three to ten minutes. 2.3 After centrifuging for three to four minutes at 400 g, remove the supernatant. 2.4 Add PBS and give the cells two 5-minute washings. 2.5 Re-suspend the cells in 1 mL of PBS or serum-free media, and use a flow cytometer or fluorescence microscope to observe. 3. Adherent cell staining 3.1 Use sterile coverslips to culture adherent cells. 3.2 Aspirate the extra culture medium after removing the coverslip from the medium. 3.3 Add 100 μL of the dye working solution, give the cells a gentle shake to cover them completely, and then let them sit for three to ten minutes. 3.4 Aspirate the dye working solution, wash with culture medium two or three times for five minutes each time, and use a flow cytometer or fluorescence microscope to monitor. Storage conditions: -20°C, one year of light protection. Notes: 1. Please modify the concentration of the DAPI working solution and the incubation period in accordance with the actual circumstances. 2. Professionals may only use this product for scientific study; it may not be utilized for clinical diagnosis or treatment, nor may it be included into food or medication. 3. Please wear a lab coat and disposable gloves for your own health and safety.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)
Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg
1 mM 2.8073 mL 14.0363 mL 28.0725 mL
5 mM 0.5615 mL 2.8073 mL 5.6145 mL
10 mM 0.2807 mL 1.4036 mL 2.8073 mL

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
