SAMPLE EXPERIMENTAL PROTOCOL
The following is a recommended protocol for granulocytes. This protocol only provides a guideline and should be modified
according to your specific experimental conditions.
Prepare cells as desired. For example, prepare the granulocytes at 107 cells/mL with Hanks and 20 mM Hepes buffer (HHBS), and add 100 μL to a polypropylene tube.
Note: Each cell line should be evaluated on an individual basis to determine the optimal cell density.
Add 1-10 μL of the Protonex™ Red 600-Latex Bead Conjugate to the tube and incubate with gentle shaking for 30 minutes at 37˚C.
Note: Each cell line should be evaluated on an individual basis to determine the optimal incubation time.
Prepare an identical sample that is incubated at 4˚C and label it as a control.
At the end of the 30-minute incubation, stop phagocytosis by adding 2mL of ice-cold HHBS and mix well.
Wash the cells 2 times with cold HBSS.
Resuspend the cells in 500 μL of cold HBSS, keep the samples at 4˚C, and analyze immediately using a fluorescence microscope equipped with a Texas Red® filter set.
Note: For fluorescence microplate readers, monitor the fluorescence intensity at Ex/Em = 570/600 nm (Cutoff = 585 nm).
Images
![Phagocytosis was examined in RAW 264.7 cells by Protonex™ Red 600-Latex Bead Conjugate (Cat # 21209). The cells were incubated with Protonex™ 600 Latex Beads in growth medium for 4 hours. CytoTrace™ Green CMFDA (Cat # 22017) was used to track live cells. The image (20X) was taken using Keyence Fluorescence Microscopy. ](/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fimages.aatbio.com%2Fproducts%2Ffigures-and-data%2Fprotonex-red-600-latex-bead-conjugate%2Ffigure-for-protonex-red-600-latex-bead-conjugate_trLfJ.jpg&w=3840&q=75)
