Annexin 5 fitc pi staining kit

Manufactured by BestBio
Sourced in China

The Annexin V-FITC/PI staining kit is a laboratory product used for the detection and quantification of apoptosis in cell samples. The kit contains Annexin V conjugated with the fluorescent dye FITC and the nuclear stain propidium iodide (PI). Annexin V binds to phosphatidylserine, which is externalized during the early stages of apoptosis, while PI stains DNA in cells with compromised cell membranes, indicating late-stage apoptosis or necrosis. The kit provides a simple and reliable method to distinguish between viable, early apoptotic, and late apoptotic/necrotic cells using flow cytometry or fluorescence microscopy.

The cell cycle was analyzed using a Cell Cycle Detection Kit (BB-4104, BestBio, Shanghai) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The cells were harvested by centrifugation and then fixed in 75% cold ethanol overnight after washing three times with PBS. Each sample was washed and resuspended in 500 μl of propidium iodide (PI) working solution for 30 to 60 min in the dark before detection using a FACSCalibur flow cytometer (Becton, Dickinson and Company, USA). The percentage of cells was further analyzed with ModFit LT software. Cell apoptosis was measured using an Annexin V-FITC/PI staining kit (BB-4101, BestBio, Shanghai) according to the manufacturer’s guidelines. The cells were counted and adjusted to 1 × 106 cell/ml. Then, a 2 ml aliquot of the cells was inoculated into each well of a 6-well plate, and the cells were allowed to grow for 24 h prior to drug treatment. Flow cytometry was performed using a FACSCalibur flow cytometer (Becton, Dickinson and Company, USA) and processed using CellQuest Pro analysis software. The experimental methods used for flow-cytometric analysis in our study can be found in previous reports [15 (link), 16 (link)].

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.
