Although JC-1 is widely used in many labs, its poor water solubility makes it hard to use for some applications. Even at 1 礛 concentration, JC-1 tends to precipitate in aqueous buffer. JC-10 has been developed to be a superior alternative to JC-1 where high dye concentration is desired. Compared to JC-1, our JC-10 has much better water solubility. JC-10 is capable of entering selectively into mitochondria, and changes reversibly its color from green to orange as membrane potentials increase. This property is due to the reversible formation of JC-10 aggregates upon membrane polarization that causes shifts in emitted light from 520 nm (i.e., emission of JC-10 monomeric form) to 570 nm (i.e., emission of J-aggregate). When excited at 490 nm, the color of JC-10 changes reversibly from green to greenish orange as the mitochondrial membrane becomes more polarized. This Cell Meter� JC-10 Mitochondrial Membrane Potential Assay Kit enable you to monitor mitochondrial membrane potential changes using a simple microplate reader while all the other commercial JC-1 assay kits require the use of a flow cytometer. Our kit provides the most robust method to monitor mitochondrial membrane potential changes, and can be readily used for screening a large compound library.
