Annexin 5 fitc pi assay kit

Manufactured by Keygen Biotech
Sourced in China

The Annexin V-FITC/PI assay kit is a laboratory equipment used to detect and quantify apoptosis, or programmed cell death, in a sample. The kit includes Annexin V conjugated to the fluorescent dye FITC and the DNA-binding dye propidium iodide (PI). The core function of the kit is to differentiate between viable, early apoptotic, and late apoptotic/necrotic cells based on their membrane integrity and phosphatidylserine externalization.

Assessing Cell Apoptosis by Flow Cytometry

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell apoptosis was assessed by flow cytometry using the Annexin V-FITC/PI assay kit (Nanjing KeyGen Biotech, Nanjing, China) to differentiate the survival and apoptotic cells. The HK-2 cells were plated on 6-well plates at initial densities of 5×105 cells/well and incubated for 24 hours prior to the addition of the GNPs. Fresh medium containing GNPs (50 nM) was added to the cells and incubated for another 24 hours. Thereafter, the cells were trypsinized, washed with PBS, resuspended in binding buffer, and incubated with staining solution (annexin V/PI =1:2) in the dark for 20 minutes at room temperature. Immediately after the annexin V/PI staining, fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) analysis was performed using a FACSCalibur™ flow cytometer (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA).

Cell apoptosis was analyzed by Annexin V and propidium iodide (PI) staining using flow cytometry (Peng et al., 2015 (link)), with the Annexin V-FITC/PI assay kit (Nanjing KeyGen Biotech, Nanjing, China) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. FITC Annexin V and PI were 5 μL, respectively, which was added in sequence for cells staining after being trypsinized, centrifuged and resuspended. After incubation with staining solution (annexin V/PI = 1:2) for 20 min in the dark at room temperature. Fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) analysis was immediately performed using a flow cytometer (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA).

MDA-MB-231 cells were plated into 6-well culture plates (2 mL/well) and cultured in 5% CO2 at 37 °C overnight. RuDA-NPs or RuDA were added, which were diluted to a concentration of 50 μM. After 12 h incubation, the cells were irradiated with or without 808 nm laser (0.5 W cm−2) for 10 min (300 J cm−2). For the Vitamin C (Vc) group, the cells were treated with 0.5 mM Vc before laser irradiation. After another 12 h, the cells were digested with trypsin and washed twice with cold PBS. Then, cells were collected by centrifugation (450 × g, 5 min). The apoptosis was determined by flow cytometry using an Annexin V-FITC/PI assay kit (KeyGEN BioTECH, China) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. The detailed operation as follows: cells were stained with 5 μL Annexin V-FITC for 5 min in Annexin-binding buffer (10 mM HEPES, 140 mM NaCl, 2.5 mM CaCl2, pH 7.4). PI (propidium iodide) was added to cells with 5 μL before incubating at room temperature for 15 min. The fluorescence of cells was measured by flow cytometer. BD FACSDiva and Cell Quest Pro software were used for data collection and FlowJo V10 was used for data analysis. The results appeared as a percentage of normal and apoptotic cells at various stages.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
