Guide (The following is our recommended experimental protocol. This protocol is for reference only and should be modified according to your specific needs).
Cell labeling[1]:
For live cells, follow steps 1-7. For fixed cells, follow steps 8-13.
1. Prepare a labeling solution at a concentration of 25–500 nM in the desired cell culture medium, and warm it to the cell culture temperature.
2. Remove the culture medium from the cells on the coverslip.
3. Immerse the cells in the labeling medium and incubate at 37°C for 15-45 min.
4. Remove the labeling medium and rinse the cells three times with culture medium.
5. Mount the cells.
6. Examine the cells using a fluorescence microscope. If fluorescence staining is too low, try one of the following:
i. Incubate for an additional 30 min in normal culture medium to allow thiol binding to occur.
ii. Increase the initial concentration of the labeling solution.
7. When fluorescence is sufficient, image the cells.
8. Repeat steps 1-4, but use a labeling solution with a working concentration between 100 and 1000 nM.
9. Wash the cells three times with PBS.
10. Fix the cells in PBS (pH 7.4) containing 3.7% formaldehyde for 10 min.
11. Aspirate and wash the cells three times with PBS, 5 min each.
12. Mount with a coverslip.
13. Image the cells.

Mitochondrial membrane-potential fluorescent assay
Mitochondrial membrane potential fluorescent assays estimate ΔΨm in living cells using lipophilic cationic dyes such as TMRM, TMRE, rhodamine 123, and JC-1, which accumulate in mitochondria according to membrane polarization; loss of signal after FCCP or CCCP treatment is interpreted as mitochondrial depolarization. TMRM/TMRE and rhodamine 123 are commonly used for semi-quantitative live-cell microscopy or flow cytometry, while JC-1 can report a shift from red aggregate fluorescence to green monomer fluorescence during depolarization; interpretation requires controls because dye concentration, quenching mode, cell type, dye efflux, and mitochondrial mass can affect fluorescence independently of ΔΨm.

Fluorescent plasma-membrane potential dye assay
Fluorescent plasma-membrane potential dye assays measure changes in cell membrane potential using voltage-sensitive dyes whose fluorescence changes when cells depolarize or hyperpolarize. Anionic bis-oxonol dyes such as DiBAC4(3) enter depolarized cells more readily and show increased fluorescence after intracellular binding, while hyperpolarization reduces dye accumulation and fluorescence. FMP/FLIPR membrane-potential dyes are used for faster, homogeneous microplate assays of ion-channel or receptor-mediated membrane-potential changes.

Mitochondrial membrane-potential and mitochondrial mass staining
Mitochondrial membrane potential staining measures the electrochemical polarization across the mitochondrial inner membrane in live cells using lipophilic cationic fluorescent probes; early rhodamine-based work showed that selective mitochondrial dye accumulation is lost when the mitochondrial transmembrane potential is dissipated. JC-1 reports mitochondrial polarization by shifting from green monomer fluorescence to red J-aggregate fluorescence as dye concentration increases within energized mitochondria; therefore, the red/green fluorescence ratio is used as a relative readout of mitochondrial membrane potential. TMRE or TMRM staining provides a single-channel relative readout because these cationic rhodamine esters accumulate in polarized mitochondria, and lower fluorescence indicates reduced mitochondrial polarization when acquisition and dye-loading conditions are controlled. Mitochondrial mass staining is commonly performed with MitoTracker Green FM or related MitoTracker dyes as
