[Histonet] labeling cells in culture

[Elizabeth Chlipala]

Hello everyone
 
I have a question that one of my clients has asked.  Thanks in advance.
Below is the question.
 
Is there any method for labeling living cells in order to track them in 
mixtures with non-labeled cells? The point is that I would like to label

primary human chondrocytes (difficult to transfect), culture them for 4 
weeks together with non-labeled cells and then I would like to be able 
to look at these chondrocytes by microscopy. I know about various 
compounds (Quantum dots, etc) but those are good only for about one
week.
 
Liz
