Product Specification

Usage 1. Preparation of JC-10 dyeing working solution:
The amount of JC-10 staining working solution required for each well of the six-well plate is 1 mL, and the amount of JC-10 staining working solution for other culture vessels is similar; For the cell suspension, 0.5 mL of JC-10 staining working solution is required for every 500,000 to 1,000,000 cells. Take an appropriate amount of JC-10 (200 ×) and dilute JC-10 in the proportion of 8mL of ultrapure water per 50μL of JC-10 (200 ×). Thoroughly dissolve and mix JC-10 with vigorous shaking. Then add 2mL of JC-10 staining buffer (5 ×), and mix well to obtain JC-10 staining working solution.
2. Setting of positive control:
CCCP (10 mM) provided in the kit is recommended to be added to the cell culture medium at a ratio of 1: 1000, diluted to 10 μM, and treated the cells for 20 minutes. Subsequently, JC-10 was loaded according to the following method, and mitochondrial membrane potential was detected. For most cells, the membrane potential of mitochondria will usually be completely lost after 20 minutes of 10 μM CCCP treatment, and it should show green fluorescence after JC-10 staining; However, normal cells should show red fluorescence after staining with JC-10. For specific cells, the concentration and duration of CCCP may be different, and it is necessary to refer to relevant literature to decide.
3. For suspension cells:
(1) Take 100,000 to 600,000 cells and resuspend them in 0.5 mL cell culture medium. The cell culture medium can contain serum and phenol red.
(2) Add 0.5 mL of JC-10 dyeing working solution, reverse it several times and mix well. Incubate in a cell incubator at 37 °C for 20 minutes.
(3) During the incubation period, an appropriate amount of JC-10 staining buffer (1 ×) was prepared according to the ratio of adding 4 mL of distilled water per 1 mL of JC-10 staining buffer (5 ×), and placed in an ice bath.
(4) After the incubation at 37 °C, 600g was centrifuged at 4 °C for 3-4 minutes to precipitate the cells. Discard the supernatant and be careful not to aspirate the cells as much as possible.
(5) Wash twice with JC-10 staining buffer (1 ×): add 1 mL of JC-10 staining buffer (1 ×) to resuspend the cells, centrifuge 600 g at 4 °C for 3-4 minutes, pellet the cells, and discard the supernatant. Add 1 mL of JC-10 staining buffer (1 ×) to resuspend the cells, centrifuge 600g at 4 °C for 3-4 minutes, pellet the cells, and discard the supernatant.
(6) After resuspending with an appropriate amount of JC-10 staining buffer (1 ×), observe with a fluorescence microscope or laser confocal microscope, or detect with a fluorescence spectrophotometer or analyze with a flow cytometer.
4. For adherent cells:
Note: For adherent cells, if you want to use fluorescence spectrophotometer or flow cytometer detection, you can collect the cells first, and refer to the detection method of suspended cells after resuspension.
(1) For one well of a six-well plate, aspirate the culture medium, wash the cells once with PBS or other appropriate solution if necessary according to the specific experiment, and add 1 mL of cell culture medium. The cell culture medium may contain serum and phenol red.
(2) Add 1mL of JC-10 dyeing working solution and mix well. Incubate in a cell incubator at 37 °C for 20 minutes.
(3) During the incubation period, an appropriate amount of JC-10 staining buffer (1 ×) was prepared according to the ratio of adding 4 mL of distilled water per 1 mL of JC-10 staining buffer (5 ×), and placed in an ice bath.
(4) After the incubation at 37 °C, the supernatant was aspirated and washed twice with JC-10 staining buffer (1 ×).
(5) 2 mL of cell culture medium is added, and the culture medium may contain serum and phenol red.
(6) Observe under fluorescence microscope or laser confocal microscope.
5. For purified mitochondria:
(1) The prepared JC-10 staining working solution was diluted 5 times with JC-10 staining buffer (1 ×).
(2) 0.9 mL of 5-fold diluted JC-10 staining working solution was added with 0.1 mL of purified mitochondria with a total protein amount of 10-100 μg.
(3) Detection with a fluorescence spectrophotometer or a fluorescence microplate reader: After mixing, directly use a fluorescence spectrophotometer to time scan (time scan). The excitation wavelength is 485nm and the emission wavelength is 590nm. If a fluorescent microplate reader is used and the excitation wavelength cannot be set to 485 nm, the excitation wavelength can be set in the range of 475 to 520 nm. In addition, fluorescence detection can also be performed with reference to the wavelength setting in step 6 below.
(4) Observation with fluorescence microscope or laser confocal microscope: The method is the same as step 6 below.
6. Fluorescence observation and result analysis:
When detecting JC-10 monomer, the excitation light can be set to 490nm and the emission light can be set to 530nm; When detecting the JC-10 polymer, the excitation light can be set to 525 nm and the emission light can be set to 590 nm. Note that it is not necessary to set the excitation light and the emission light at the maximum excitation wavelength and the maximum emission wavelength when measuring fluorescence here. For observation using a fluorescence microscope, when detecting JC-10 monomer, you can refer to the settings when observing other green fluorescence, such as the settings when observing GFP or FITC; When detecting JC-10 polymer, you can refer to the settings when observing other red fluorescence, such as propidium iodide or Cy3. The appearance of green fluorescence indicates that the mitochondrial membrane potential decreases, and the cell is probably in the early stage of apoptosis. The appearance of red fluorescence indicates that the mitochondrial membrane potential is relatively normal and the state of cells is also relatively normal.


Precautions:
1. JC-10 (200 ×) will solidify and stick to the bottom, wall or cover of the centrifuge tube at lower temperatures such as 4 °C and ice bath. It can be incubated in a water bath at 20 ~ 25 °C for a while until it is completely melted. After use.
2. JC-10 (200 ×) must be fully dissolved and mixed with the ultrapure water provided by the kit before JC-10 staining buffer (5 ×) can be added. Do not prepare JC-10 staining buffer (1 ×) first and then add JC-10 (200 ×), as it will be difficult to fully dissolve JC-10, which will seriously affect subsequent detection.
3. When washing with JC-10 staining buffer (1 ×) after loading JC-10, keep the JC-10 staining buffer (1 ×) at about 4 ℃, and the washing effect at this time is better.
4. After the JC-10 probe is loaded and washed, try to complete the follow-up detection within 30 minutes. Store in ice bath before testing.
5. Please do not prepare all JC-10 staining buffer (5 ×) into JC-10 staining buffer (1 ×). JC-10 staining buffer (5 ×) should be directly used during the use of this kit.
6. If precipitate is found in JC-10 staining buffer (5 ×), it must be completely dissolved before use. To promote dissolution, it can be heated at 37 °C.
7. CCCP is a mitochondrial electron transport chain inhibitor, which is toxic. Please pay attention to careful protection.
8. For your safety and health, please wear a lab coat and disposable gloves.

Description

Mitochondrial membrane potential detection kit (JC-10) is a kit that uses JC-10 as a fluorescent probe to rapidly and sensitively detect the changes of mitochondrial membrane potential of cells, tissues or purified mitochondria. It can be used for early apoptosis detection.
JC-10 is an ideal fluorescent probe widely used to detect mitochondrial membrane potential ΔΨm. Cellular, tissue, or purified mitochondrial membrane potentials can be detected. When the mitochondrial membrane potential is high, JC-10 gathers in the matrix of mitochondria and forms a polymer, which can produce red fluorescence; When the mitochondrial membrane potential is low, JC-10 cannot gather in the mitochondrial matrix. At this time, JC-10 is a monomer and can produce green fluorescence. In this way, it is very convenient to detect the change of mitochondrial membrane potential through the change of fluorescence color. The relative ratio of red and green fluorescence is commonly used to measure the ratio of mitochondrial depolarization.
The decrease of mitochondrial membrane potential is a landmark event in the early stage of apoptosis. The decrease of cell membrane potential can be easily detected by the transition from red fluorescence to green fluorescence of JC-10, and the transition from red fluorescence to green fluorescence of JC-10 can also be used as a detection index in the early stage of apoptosis.
The maximum excitation wavelength of JC-10 monomer is 515nm, and the maximum emission wavelength is 529nm; The JC-10 polymer has a maximum excitation wavelength of 585 nm and a maximum emission wavelength of 590 nm. In actual observation, conventional settings for observing red fluorescence and green fluorescence may be used.
This kit provides CCCP as a positive control for inducing a decrease in mitochondrial membrane potential. For samples in six-well plates, this kit can detect a total of 100 samples; For samples in 12 wells, this kit can detect a total of 200 samples.

I use it for myself not my pet
I sewed a fluffy velcro pouch to put this in, and then I wrapped the pouch around a microwavable heat gel pack in order to get the sensation of both heat and heartbeat while hugging a large stuffed animal. It works great. It's not too loud if you position it right. It helps me to fall asleep and not feel lonely or touch starved. The battery lasts a long time and I don't have to recharge it very often. I only wish that the speed of the heartbeat was adjustable so that I could slow it down a little more so that my own heartbeat might try to match it.

Easily Exposed Lithium Ion Battery
I am returning this item for my money back. Apparently, they think they can charge $16 for a piece of plastic and not even put a screw on the back to hold the panel closed. My dog is smart and a little rough when anxious. I wanted a rechargeable heart (to avoid buying batteries) to help with this anxiety but cannot risk the Velcro coming undone and him biting the heart by mistake. The panel slides off very easily. There's a reason that lithium ion batteries aren't usually easily accessible. I'm not risking my dog discovering a battery and wire in the heart. Even with appropriate supervision, accidents happen. I don't even understand why I would need to access the battery when it's rechargeable. I don't recommend purchasing this product for that reason alone.

bottle baby kittens preferred this heartbeat to having warm snuggle safe heat disk
Ok... when I got this I thought.. "are you kidding me?" they are going to like this. Joke was on me. They love it. It is rhythmic and it is strong enough that it pulsates the area so all of them can feel it. They consistently would lay on top of the heart rather than in the area of their "crib" where the heat was.. and this was when they were still only a few days old! It works. So this is what you want to know. It beats continuously for about 4-5 days without needing a recharge. Recharge is fast and only takes a couple hours The button is slightly "inside" the unit so when it is placed upside down there is no way that it can accidentally be turned off. Which is great. If the button were on the upside in the pet space then a foot or body part of the little animal could turn it off inadvertantly. Design to put the button slightly inset is extremely important design feature - makes this excellent. When I turn it on I know it will be going as long as the battery still has charge. .   I don't think it is waterproof so I put it under the pee pad that I had under the blanket bedding and it was still easily heard AND felt. If not using a pee pad I would definitely put it in a small ziplock bag to protect from any leaked urine or liquids to keep it safe. When the kittens were done eating they would gravitate towards the heart beat... (with their eyes open or when they were still closed after birth it was the same response). This little gadget was a total lifesaver as it really calmed the kittens in ways I would not be able to. These pictures are of the trio that LOVED this.... Meet Zen (tabby M with white feet), Sugar (tuxedo F with white feet) and Rocket (ginger - M). All cisgender. they were about 3 days old when I got them to foster.. photos from arrival until about 3 weeks of age. Photo with q-tip is to give relative size on arrival. They will be up for adoption in Tustin CA in another 2-3 weeks time.

Fantastic!
The heart that came with Snuggle Puppy was a pain to replace the battery. This is the only rechargeable heart I could find searching online. I was a little concerned reading it’s a “frequently returned item.” But happy to say, we will not be returning this! It shipped charged and the heart is still beating non-stop days later! It’s sturdy and fits in the snuggle puppy perfectly. We have a tiny 17 yr old Chihuahua who never chewed anything up so it’s completely safe for her to enjoy. It helps with her anxiety. You can hear the beat in the video—it’s nice and loud and has a bit of a vibration. Our pup has been sleeping next to it every night. Very happy with this purchase. From reading reviews, I trust if we have an issue with it, their customer service will help. For now, it works! I really like that it has time options—can set it for 2 hrs of heart beating or non-stop.
