The technique of JC-1 staining has been developed with the intent to detect DY in intact, viable cells. For this purpose JC-1 acts as a marker of mitochondrial activity, since the formation of J-aggregates, which give red emission, is reversible. Cells with high DY are those forming J-aggregates, thus showing high red fluorescence. On the other hand, cells with low DY are those in which JC-1 maintains (or re-acquire) monomeric form, thus showing only green fluorescence. - [Read Analysis of Mitochondrial Membrane Potential with the Sensitive Fluorescent Probe JC-1]
Protocol to demonstrate amyloid deposits in tissue sections. When stained with the Congo Red Stain the amyloid, with the aide of polarizing lenses, will birefringe an apple green color. Under the microscope. - [Read Congo Red Putcher's Modification Amyloid Protocol]
FPLC Protocol. The FPLC consists of a pump and a column which will withstand high pressure so separations can be carried out relatively quickly. For a detailed description there is a FPLC system handbook which is particularly useful for trouble shooting. For use of individual columns follow the "instructions" (in the green folder) which accompany each one. Sir William Dunn School of Pathology, Oxford University. - [Read FPLC Protocol]

Green fluorescent protein is commonly used to monitor gene expression and protein trafficking within intact cells. The Monster Green® Fluorescent Protein is encoded by an improved synthetic version of the green fluorescent protein gene originally cloned from Montastrea cavernosa (Great Star Coral). - [Read Monster Green® Fluorescent Protein Assay]
Flow cytometry is used to analyze the quantity of DNA in cells. Since the DNA content of cells varies through the cell cycle, this information can provide an indication of cell cycle progression. This protocol uses SYTOX Green staining. - [Read Preparation of Yeast Cells for Flow Cytometry Protocol]
Protocol specifically describes data acquisition for a particular variant of GFP (EGFP) or Oregon Green as a donor fluorophore, but it can be adapted for image acquisition of other chromophore. - [Read Probing Protein Interactions Using GFP and FRET]
