Product Name | Mitochondrial Membrane Potential Assay Kit (II) |
Description | The Mitochondrial Membrane Potential Assay Kit (II) is a fluorescent assay that detects the mitochondrial membrane potential in living cells. The kit includes the cationic dye TMRE (tetramethylrhodamine ethyl ester perchlorate) and a mitochondrial membrane potential disruptor CCCP (carbonyl cyanide 3-chlorophenylhydrazone). TMRE is a cell membrane permeable, fluorescent dye that accumulates in intact mitochondria. Depolarized or inactive mitochondria exhibit decreased membrane potential, resulting in reduced TMRE accumulation. |
Component | TMRE; CCCP; Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS-20X) |

Target Description | Mitochondria are the main power house in cells and play important roles in processes such as steroid metabolism, calcium homeostasis, apoptosis and cellular proliferation. Mitochondrial membrane potential is a key indicator of its function and cell health. The dissipation of mitochondrial membrane potential is established as an early indicator for apoptosis.TMRE. Cells that have lost membrane potential or mitochondria activity cannot accumulate TMRE. Therefore, the fluorescence intensity of the orange-red emission can be used to measure mitochondria membrane potential and is an indicator for cell health. |
