Related Product Information for Mycoplasma Staining assay kit
Mycoplasma Staining Kit provides anultrasensitive, rapid and simple fluorescence based microscopic assay for the visual identification of mycoplasma infections in laboratory cell cultures. Mycoplasma infections are relatively common in laboratory cell cultures. It has been estimated that between 5% and 35% of all cell cultures are infected. Mycoplasmas have been shown to alter the growth rate of cells in culture, induce chromosomal aberrations, influence amino acid and nucleic acid metabolism and cause membrane aberrations. Mycoplasma Staining Kit contains a MycoFluor Reagent and Antifade Mounting Medium. The MycoFluor reagent is added directly to the culture medium, with or without cells, and the stained sample is then examined under a fluorescence microscope with an excitation and emission maxima of 350-360nM and 450-460nM respectively. Mycoplasma staining with MycoFluor reagent appears as fine particulate or filamentous staining in the cytoplasm at 100X magnification. Nuclei of the cells are also brightly stained by this method and thereby act as endogenous positive control for the staining procedure.

Product Notes
The Mycoplasma Staining (Catalog #AAA8400616) is an Assay Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Mycoplasma Staining, Assay Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
