Description
7-Aminoactinomycin D (7-AAD) is a fluorescent DNA dye that is commonly used for the detection or exclusion of non-viable cells in flow cytometric analysis, as it is generally excluded by live cells. As it is detected in the far red range of the spectrum (650 nm long-pass filter), it exhibits minimal spectral overlap with and can be used with PE and FITC. 7-AAD can also be used in studies to evaluate apoptosis and cell-mediated cytotoxicity. It can also be used to stain DNA in cells that have been fixed and permeabilized by a variety of methods.
