Cell permeable viability dye enables the users to detect metabolically active, calcein-AM positive cells. In live cells, non-fluorescent Calcein AM is converted by cellular esterases into green fluorescing cells.

Cell permeable viability dye enables the users to detect metabolically active, calcein-AM positive cells. In live cells, non-fluorescent Calcein AM is converted by cellular esterases into green fluorescing cells.
Since Calcein AM does not require DNA binding, it stains all metabolically-active cells and can be used to measure metabolic activity in non-nucleated cells, such as platelets.
Because Calcein AM is photostable, has low cytotoxicity and does not affect cellular functions, it is a popular stain for the examination of cell vitality and metabolic activity.
