Reagent kit for nuclei extraction and DNA staining of nuclear DNA from plant tissues to determine absolute and relative genome size and ploidy level. CyStain PI OxProtect is especially formulated to prevent oxidation and degradation processes triggered by endogenous plant tissue oxidants. The reagent has been created specifically for selected configurations of the Sysmex CyFlow Ploidy Analyser and CyFlow Space flow cytometers.
Kit components:
