Annexin 5 fitc and propidium iodide staining solution

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific

Annexin V-FITC and propidium iodide staining solution is a laboratory reagent used for the detection and analysis of apoptosis and cell death in various cell types. Annexin V binds to phosphatidylserine, which is exposed on the cell surface during apoptosis, while propidium iodide stains the DNA of cells with compromised cell membranes, indicating late-stage apoptosis or necrosis. This solution enables the differentiation of viable, early apoptotic, and late apoptotic/necrotic cells through flow cytometry or fluorescence microscopy.

The number of Treg cells in each collected sample was counted by using an Annexin V-FITC and propidium iodide staining solution (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA) in reference with the recommended assay protocol provided on the manufacturer’s manual. The Treg cells were isolated using a CD4+CD25+ Regulatory T Cell Isolation Kit (Miltenyi Biotec, Germany) following instruction provided by the manufacturer. The result reading was carried out in a FACS Calibur flow cytometer (BD, San Jose, CA).

Assessing Apoptosis in A549 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The A549 cells in the logarithmic growth phase were treated with 125, 250, and 500 μg/mL LLTPs for 48 h. Then, the cells were washed with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) three times, suspended in annexin V–FITC binding solution, mixed with annexin V–FITC and propidium iodide staining solution (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.), and cultured at 4°C in the dark for 15 min. Finally, the apoptosis of cancer cells was analyzed by flow cytometry (FACSCalibur, BD, NJ, USA) [15 (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.
