FITC-Dextran (MW 10000) is a fluorescent probe for fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) dextran (Ex=495 nm; Em=525 nm). FITC-Dextran (MW 10000) can be used as a marker to reveal heat shock-induced cell damage and to study the early and late stages of apoptosis. FITC-Dextran (MW 10000) can also be used for cell permeability studies, such as blood-brain barrier permeability and determination of the extent of blood-brain barrier disruption.

Guidelines (Following is our recommended protocol. This protocol only provides a guideline, and should be modified according to your specific needs).Labeling of cells (HeLa cells for example):1. Suspend the cells in 100 μL of medium, and mix in Q-prep tubes with 10 μL of propidium iodide (PI), 10 μL of FITC-Dextran (MW 10000) (the final concentration of PI and FITC-Dextran (MW 10000) is 7.5 μM and 1.13 μM, respectively).2. Incubate cells for 25 min at room temperature in the dark.3. Take the labeled cells with 3 mL of medium and centrifuge for 10 min at 500g.4. Take centrifuged cells with 1 mL of medium and use flow cytometry or fluorescence microscopy analyze (PI: Ex=500 nm, Em=600 nm; FITC-Dextran (MW 10000): Ex=495 nm, Em=525 nm).
