5-CFDA is a common aliphatic luciferin-line organism. CFDA conducts free diffusion into cells, and then it is hydrolyzed into carboxyl fluorescein (CF) by intracellular non-specific lipase.
Preparation of 5-CFDA working solution
1.Preparation of the stock solution
Dissolve 1mg 5-CFDA in 0.2172 mL DMSO to obtain 10 mM of 5-CFDA.
Note: It is recommended to store the stock solution at -20°C -80°C away from light and avoid repetitive freeze-thaw cycles.
2.Preparation of 5-CFDA working solution
Dilute the stock solution in serum-free cell culture medium or PBS to obtain 1-10 μM of 5-CFDA working solution.
Note: Please adjust the concentration of 5-CFDA working solution according to the actual situation.
Cell staining
1.Cell preparation:
For suspension cells: Centrifuge at 1000 g at 4°C for 3-5 minutes and then discard the supernatant. Wash twice with PBS, 5 minutes each time.
For adherent cells: Discard the cell culture medium, and add trypsin to dissociate cells to make a single-cell suspension. Centrifuge at 1000 g at 4°C for 3-5 minutes and then discard the supernatant. Wash twice with PBS, 5 minutes each time.
2.Add 1 mL of 5-CFDA working solution, and then incubate at room temperature for 30 minutes.
3.Centrifuge at 400 g at 4°C for 3-4 minutes and then discard the supernatant.
4.Wash twice with PBS, 5 minutes each time.
5.Resuspend cells with serum-free cell culture medium or PBS, and then detect by fluorescence microscope or flow cytometer.
Precautions
1. It is recommended to store the stock solution at -20℃ or -80℃ away from light and avoid repetitive freeze-thaw cycles.
2. Please adjust the concentration of 5-CFDA working solution according to the actual situation.
3. For your safety and health, please wear a lab coat and disposable gloves to operate.
