PhenoVue 578 Mitochondrial stain is a fluorescent dye which accumulates in heathly mitochondria of live cells.
PhenoVue 578 Mitochondria stain exhibits bright red fluorescence and is validated for use in imaging microscopy and high-content screening applications.
Part of PerkinElmer's portfolio of cellular imaging reagents, PhenoVue 578 Mitochondrial stain has a maximum excitation wavelength of 578 nm and a maximum emission wavelength of 599 nm, which makes it an alternative to the similar stain MitoTracker™ Red CMTMRos.

PhenoVue 578 Mitochondrial stain is a cationic rosamine based structure. With mitochondrial membrane potential, it accumulates in mitochondria through electrostatic interactions and reacts with thiol moieties forming stable thioether bonds. Therefore PhenoVue 578 Mitochondrial stain is well retained after cell fixation.
Fluorescent mitochondrial stains are commonly used for visualizing and quantifying mitochondria whose dysfunctions, including impaired biogenesis, dynamics or trafficking, are a hallmark of some human diseases, such as neurodegenerative disorders.
PhenoVue 578 Mitochondrial stain can be used to detect mitochondria in indirect immunofluorescence, immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry, as well as high-content analysis and screening applications.

Cell Painting is a powerful high-content screening method which combines cell and computational biology to unravel cells’ responses and gain a deeper understanding of the effects of chemical and genetic perturbagens.
However, implementation of cell painting is not without its challenges - from choosing a cell model and labeling reagents, to optimizing instrumentation and making sense of the thousands of features that are extracted during data analysis.
