Product Summary for DRAQ7 (TM)

Key Features of DRAQ7 (TM) :
  • Far-red viability dye used for investigating dead or membrane compromised cells, notably for dead cell exclusion in flow cytometry, single-cell RNAseq and GWAS
  • Does not enter intact, live cells and acts as an ideal replacement for propidium iodide (PI) and 7-AAD
  • Serves as a component of apoptosis assays, for any fluorescence-based cell analysis platform, and in cell health / in vitro toxicity assays
  • Rapid staining and easy to use, without the need for a wash step
  • Non-toxic and optimal for long-term imaging studies, up to several days
  • Minimal photobleaching
  • Spectrally compatible with GFP and FITC labels.


    • DRAQ7 (TM) is supplied as a blue aqueous solution and shipped at ambient temperature, but on receipt packs should be stored at 2-8C. DO NOT FREEZE.

    Background: DRAQ7 (TM)

    DRAQ7 (TM) is a far-red viability dye belonging to the anthraquinone family that is closely related to DRAQ5 (TM). DRAQ7 (TM) only stains nuclei in dead and membrane-compromised (permeabilized) cells.

    The excitation wavelength maxima of DRAQ7 (TM) are 600 nm / 646 nm but it can also be suboptimally excited by the 488nm (blue) laser for flow cytometry. The emission wavelength maximum of this viability dye is 697 nm when bound to dsDNA. The fluorescence signal is proportional and stoichiometric to the amount of bound DNA.
