|
Cell Technology’s
Mito Flow assay utilizes a cationic dye to visualize mitochondrial
membrane potential (5-7). The Mito Flow reagent is a cell permeable
cationic dye that has a strong fluorescent signal and exhibits low
membrane potential independent (non specific) binding and toxicity. In
healthy cells the Mito Flow reagent is accumulated by the mitochondria
in proportion to the DeltaPsi (membrane potential). In most cell lines,
accumulation of the Mito Flow reagent in the mitochondria results in a
higher fluorescence intensity. In apoptotic cells, where the
mitochondrial membrane potential is compromised, the Mito Flow reagent
does not get accumulated in the mitochondria and these cells exhibit a
lower fluorescence signal.
