Senescent β galactosidase staining kit

Manufactured by Beyotime
Sourced in China

The Senescent β-galactosidase Staining Kit is a laboratory tool designed to detect and quantify the level of senescent cells in a given sample. The kit utilizes the increased activity of the enzyme β-galactosidase, which is a known biomarker for cellular senescence. The kit provides the necessary reagents and solutions to perform this analysis, allowing researchers to study cellular aging and related biological processes.

Cells were subjected to SA-β-gal staining using the Senescent β-galactosidase Staining Kit (Beyotime, #C0602) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Briefly, cells were washed with PBS and fixed with the fixative solution for 15 min. Then, the cells were incubated with the staining solution overnight at 37 °C without CO2. Finally, green-stained positive cells were photographed and counted from three different locations per well by an inverted microscope.

Senescent Cell Quantification via β-Galactosidase Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
SA-β-galactosidase activity was determined using the Senescent β-Galactosidase Staining Kit (Beyotime, Shanghai, China). Primary cells were washed twice with PBS after treatment. The cells were then fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde at room temperature for 15 min. Next, the cells were washed three times with ice-cold PBS and incubated in freshly prepared β-galactosidase staining solution at 37 °C free of CO2 incubator overnight. Stained cells were imaged using an Olympus FV1000 confocal laser microscope to evaluate the ratio of aged cells.

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.
