General description

El azul de tripano es un colorante utilizado para distinguir entre células vivas y células muertas. Es un colorante vital que no es absorbido por las células viables sanas, pero tiñe las células con una membrana celular dañada. De esta forma, sólo pueden contarse las células muertas. Este método suele denominarse método de exclusión de colorante.
Trypan Blue (TB), an anionic hydrophilic azo dye, crosses only the cell membranes of dead cells, thereby staining dead tissues/cells blue. It is used in quantitative microscopy for a dye exclusion staining technique to differentiate between live and dead mammalian cells.

Application

Trypan Blue solution has been used:
  • in cell viability assay to count viable and dead cells
  • in rescue assay to count viable cells
  • in trypan blue exclusion counting method to determine proliferation curve
  • as the saline control and in the preparation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) solution to confirm the success of LPS infusion
  • in trypan blue dye exclusion test to determine gastric epithelial cells (GEC) viability
  • to count GEC cells using a hemocytometer

Preparation Note

Se prepara en cloruro de sodio al 0,81% y en fosfato de potasio dibásico al 0,06%.
