Hello Everyone
Is anyone out there aware of an ECM stain that can be used on growing tissue culture cells in a hydrogel. What I'm really looking for is a live stain I can use on the whole gel and see with a light microscope. I want to get a general idea of the amount of ECM that is growing. So it could just be a general bulk ECM (proteoglycan or collagen) stain that will show a contrast from the gel. And I want to be able to return the gel to the incubator and do the stain again multiple days later. I have searched extensively for something that would do this and I have come up with nothing. Any advice is appreciated and thanks in advance Liz Elizabeth A.
