The QUANTOMâ„¢ Total Cell Staining Kit is used to label bacterial cells for counting with the QUANTOM Txâ„¢ Microbial Cell Counter.QUANTOMâ„¢ 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 QUANTOMâ„¢ Total Cell Staining Dye. QUANTOMâ„¢Total Cell Staining Enhancer improves dye penetration into cells.QUANTOMâ„¢ Total Cell Staining Enhancer also keeps dye evenly distributed in solution, keeping the background uniform for each field of view during multiple image acquisition. QUANTOMâ„¢ Cell Loading Buffer I is a gradient medium used for the even distribution and sedimentation of bacterial cells in QUANTOMâ„¢ M50 Cell Counting Slides.
