The following protocol is recommended:
1. Before opening the vial, spin down the solid to the bottom by a
microcentrifuge or by a desktop centrifuge.
2. Warm the vial to room temperature and add DMSO to prepare a
1000X stock solution of 1-5 mM (freeze aliquots at -20°C).
3. Dilute in cell culture media at a final concentration of 1-5 µM and add
to cells in culture. Incubate at 37°C for 20-45 minutes.
4. Wash cells with PBS buffer before imaging.

General description
Uptake of cystine allows accumulation of cysteine that is necessary for glutathione synthesis and reactive oxygen species (ROS) detoxification. After the uptake of cystine into the cytoplasm, the reducing intracellular environment leads to a separation of one cystine molecule into two cysteine molecules. A key function of cysteine is to maintain the cellular pools of glutathione (GSH). Cystine uptake is also required for T-cell activation and B-cell development.
The BioTracker Cystine-FITC dye is a live cell green fluorescent imaging probe that measures cystine uptake at the single cell level. The probe has been used to measure T-cell activation using traditional and imaging flow cytometry methods.
