Aug 20, 2014 at 18:00 comment added Damian Kao Looking at the hoechst red spectrum is a pretty common practice in flow cytometry (examining the side population for example). It's not some random claim I made. Anyways, I found the answer in a paper. I updated the main question.

Aug 20, 2014 at 11:44 comment added Armatus That's a problem but it doesn't warrant sniping the question down immediately like this. Give the asker some time to edit the question and explain where he made such a claim before putting him through a tedious reopen procedure. If he doesn't respond within the next days, close it down.

Aug 18, 2014 at 21:30 comment added Behzad Rowshanravan could you provide a link or reference about the function of the dye as "indicative of apoptosis, cellular complexity, or a proxy for cytoplasmic content". I'm quite interested! I know that some dyes such as CyTRAK orange that stains both nucleus and cytoplasm with cytoplasm being a lighter orange colour than the nucleus but the described hoechst 33342 property is new to me, so I would be interested in any links/references you could provide supporting your question!
Aug 18, 2014 at 19:52 comment added Damian Kao I am talking about Hoechst 33342 specifically.

Aug 18, 2014 at 17:06 comment added Mad Scientist There are several Höchst dyes, you might want to clarify which you are talking about.
