In Vitro	Guidelines[2] (Following is our recommended protocol. This protocol only provides a guideline, and should be modified according to your specific needs). Labeling of Cells: 1. Incubate the cells according to your normal protocol. 2. Suspend cells at 1x107 cells/mL in 37°C Hanks Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS) with 1 μM Fura Red, AM unless specified otherwise and 0.01% Pluronic F127, and incubate in a 37°C water bath for 30 minutes. 3. Wash cells in HEPES Buffered Saline Solution (HBSS with 1 mM CaCl2, 0.5 mM MgCl2, 0.1% BSA, 10 mM HEPES) and resuspend to 1x107 cells/mL in HEPES Buffered Saline Solution with viability dye, SYTOX Green. 4. Equilibrate cells for ≥10 minutes in a 37°C water bath. 5. Analyze sample on a flow cytometer, fluorescence microscopy, or fluorescence microplate reader. Ratiometric analysis of Fura Red is measured by excitation by the Violet laser (406 nm) and the Green laser (532 nm). Emission is detected by two different filter sets: increases in emission are monitored off the Violet laser (630LP and 660/20 BP), while a decrease in emission are detected off the Green laser (685LP and 710/50 BP).
