β-Galactosidase in Situ Staining Kit is a kit for the detection of β-galactosidase in cells or tissues using X-gal as substrate. The principle of detection is that X-gal can produce a blue product catalyzed by β-galactosidase, and the expression of β-galactosidase can be detected by ordinary light microscopy.
This kit is optimized to be compatible with polystyrene consumables or containers such as common cell culture plates, pipettes, etc., which can effectively avoid poor staining results caused by incompatible consumables or containers. In addition, the working solution prepared by this kit cannot produce precipitation during use, which is more convenient.
