Does WST-8 (CCVK-I) stain viable cells?
No, it does not stain viable cells because a water-soluble tetrazolium salt (WST-8) is used for the solution. The electron mediator, 1-Methoxy PMS, receives electrons from viable cells and transfers the electrons to WST-8 in the culture medium. Since its formazan dye is also highly water soluble, CCVK-I cannot be utilized for cell staining.

Could you send me additional information on how to use Calcein-AM?
Calcein AM (MW: 994.87) is a cell membrane-permeable, non-fluorescent dye that is hydrolyzed by esterases to the cell membrane-impermeable green-fluorescent Calcein. Since esterases are only active in viable cells, the green fluorescence is directly proportional to the number of live cells in culture.
General Staining Procedure:1. Prepare 1 mM Calcein-AM solution with DMSO and dilute to prepare 1-50 µM Calcein-AM solution with PBS.2. Add Calcein-AM solution with 1/10 of the volume of cell culture medium to the cell culture.3. Incubate the cell at 37ºC for 15-30 minutes.4. Wash cells twice with PBS or an appropriate buffer.5. Observe the cells using a fluorescence microscope with 490 nm excitation and 515 nm emission filters.Related Links and Documents
