The QUANTOM™ Total Cell Staining Kit is used to label bacterial cells for counting with the QUANTOM Tx™ Microbial Cell Counter.QUANTOM™ Total Cell Staining Dye is a Membrane-permeable fluorescent dye that can stain nucleic acids in both live and dead cells. Both Gram-positive and negative bacterial cells can be detected with QUANTOM™ Total Cell Staining Dye. QUANTOM™Total Cell Staining Enhancer improves dye penetration into cells.QUANTOM™ Total Cell Staining Enhancer also keeps dye evenly distributed in solution, keeping the background uniform for each field of view during multiple image acquisition. QUANTOM™ Cell Loading Buffer I is a gradient medium used for the even distribution and sedimentation of bacterial cells in QUANTOM™ M50 Cell Counting Slides.
