Annexin 5 fluorescein isothiocyanate fitc apoptosis analysis kit

Manufactured by Sungene Biotech

The Annexin V–fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) Apoptosis Analysis Kit is a laboratory reagent used to detect and quantify apoptosis (programmed cell death) in cell populations. It contains 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 detection and analysis of apoptotic cells using flow cytometry or fluorescence microscopy.

Annexin V-FITC Apoptosis Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The apoptosis of cumulus cells was detected according to the instructions of the Annexin V‐Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) Apoptosis Analysis Kit (Tianjin Sungene Biotech Co. Ltd.). In brief, cells were treated with trypsin and washed twice with phosphate‐buffered saline (PBS). Then, the cells were centrifuged at 800 × g for 5 min at 4°C and three times. Then, 100 μl of PBS was added to each centrifuge tube, followed by incubation for 15 min with 5 μl of FITC‐labeled Annexin V solution and 5 μl of propidium iodide (20 μg/ml) in the dark. Apoptotic and viable cells were distinguished by staining with propidium iodide and FITC‐labeled annexin V, respectively. The cell samples were then analysed using a flow cytometer (Beckman Coulter).

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.
