[Histonet] RE: Membrane label, fixable

[AGrobe2555 <@t> aol.com]

Tom,
If I recollect rightly, there are compounds that can be  incorporated into 
the membrane of living cells and used for tracking.   I have info on 2 products 
from SIGMA that may work for you.  They  are:
PKH26 Red Fluorescent Cell Linker kit for general membrane labeling  
(PKH26-GL)
PKH67 Green Fluorescent Cell Linker Kit for general membrane labeling  (Stock 
# PKH67-GL)
 
I have not used these products, so I can't speak to how well they work or  if 
they are fixable, but it may get you started....
