Apopnexin annexin 5 fitc apoptosis detection kit

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States

The ApopNexin Annexin V FITC Apoptosis detection kit is a laboratory assay used to detect and quantify apoptosis, a type of programmed cell death. The kit utilizes Annexin V, a protein that binds to phosphatidylserine, a molecule that is exposed on the surface of cells undergoing apoptosis. The Annexin V is conjugated with the fluorescent dye FITC, allowing for the visualization and analysis of apoptotic cells using flow cytometry or fluorescence microscopy.

Apoptosis Analysis in Rat Liver and Cells

The extent of apoptosis in the livers of control and tributyrin-treated rats was analyzed for the presence of apoptotic bodies as described previously [12 (link)]. Apoptosis in the rat HCC JM1 cells was evaluated by annexin-V/propidium iodide staining and caspases 3/7 activity assays. Cells were stained using an ApopNexin Annexin V FITC Apoptosis detection kit (EMD Millipore, Billerica, MA), according to the manufacturer's protocol and analyzed using a FACSort flow cytometer (Becton Dickinson, Washington, DC). Heat-shock treated cells were used as a positive control, and non-stained cells as a negative control. Quantitative analyses of caspases-3/7 activity in cells were conducted by ELISA, using Caspase-Glo®3/7 reagent (Promega, Madison, USA) as substrate, according to manufacturer's instructions.

Apoptosis Quantification in HCECs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The percentage of HCECs undergoing apoptosis was investigated by using a detection kit (apopNexin Annexin V-FITC Apoptosis Detection Kit; EMD Millipore, Lake Placid, NY, USA). The HCECs were trypsinized and incubated with annexin V and propidium iodide (PI) for 15 minutes and analyzed by flow cytometer (BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA) to determine the percentage of apoptotic cells in each sample.

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.
