要考虑的因素有示踪对象的大小、给样方式（注射，直接上样到组织等），示踪对象是否需要固定。以下链接详细介绍了我们提供的各类神经元示踪剂的详细信息以及选择方法：

这是不推荐的。这些染料与DNA和RNA的结合会影响核酸的正常功能，扰乱转录和增殖。诸如CellTracker染料或Qtracker试剂在不严重扰乱细胞正常活动的条件下对其进行追踪。如果您仍需要使用核酸染料进行标记且细胞是哺乳动物和非血液来源的话，CellLight 细胞核试剂可通过瞬时转染进入细胞，在核表达蛋白上表达GFP或RFP长达数天而不影响其功能。

Qtracker试剂是最持久并且荧光强度最高的细胞示踪染料，它通过内吞作用被细胞摄入。在许多样品中它们产生的信号可以持续检测长达数周，而且信号足够强，即使在固定和通透甚至加热和石蜡处理过程中，仍然能够维持较好的荧光信号。
A typical method is to label one cell line with orange fluorescent DiI C18 and the other cell line with green fluorescent DiO C18. These orange and green lipophilic cyanine dyes will stain the membranes of cells. Cells that fuse will then have both dyes, yielding a yellow color (when images are overlaid or cells are imaged in a dual-bandpass filter). These live cells can then be labeled with Hoechst 33342 (a cell-permeant blue DNA stain comparable in wavelength to DAPI), but only as an endpoint just before imaging (since DNA stains can interrupt DNA function).

Lipophilic cyanine dyes, such as DiI (Cat. No. D282), DiO (Cat. No. D275), DiD (Cat. No. D7757) or DiR (Cat. No. D12731), are commonly used. The longer the alkyl chain on the dye, the better the retention in lipophilic environments.

Factors to consider are size of tracer, method of delivery (injection, direct application to tissue, etc.), and if the tracer needs to be fixable. Here are some links to details about the various classes of neuronal tracers we offer and how to choose between them:

This is not recommended. When these stains bind to DNA and RNA, they may affect the normal function of the nucleic acids, disrupting transcription, as well as replication. Other reagents, such as CellTracker dyes or Qtracker reagents are more optimized for tracking without disrupting normal activity. If a nuclear label is still desired, though, and the cells are mammalian and non-hematopoietic, CellLight nuclear reagents can transiently transfect cells to express GFP or RFP on a nuclear-expressing protein for up to several days without affecting function.

Please see this Web link (http://www.thermofisher.com/us/en/home/life-science/cell-analysis/cell-tracing-tracking-and-morphology/cell-tracking.html) to help you choose the right option for your application. Start by planning how long you want to track your cells, then consider the mechanism of binding. Calcein dyes are very uniform in label and are good for short-term cell migration, but may be rapidly effluxed from some cell types. Lipophilic cyanine dyes, such as DiI, DiO, and similar dyes label cell membranes, don’t disrupt function, and can last longer, but have the potential to cross to other cells if membranes fuse. They are also lost upon permeabilization. CellTracker dyes are better for longer-term labeling, as they possess a mildly reactive chloromethyl moiety that allows covalent binding to cellular components. CFDA SE also covalently binds to cellular components. With all the reagents, their retention within cells is dependent upon the rate of cell division and the inherent properties of the cell (active efflux, membrane and protein turnover rates, etc.) and reagents that allow for covalent attachment exhibit longer retention than those that do not.
The longest-lasting and brightest options are the Qtracker reagents, which are taken up through endocytosis. These are so bright individual quantum dots can be detected, and are also robust enough to survive not only fixation and permeabilization, but even the heat and solvents used in paraffin processing.
