Description | Creative Biolabs offers a wide range of dye reagents and kits suitable for evaluating cell biological activity such as apoptosis, endocytosis and can be used in a number of areas: drug discovery, toxicity testing and immunology. Apoptosis Detection Kit, Hoechst 33342 & PI is used for identification and enumeration of dead cells, such as apoptotic or necrotic cells, by FC, IF. |
Features | Convenient, and simple steps; Be compatible with various antibody function study platforms; Reduced signal variability and improved timing in sensitive experiments; |
Applications | Be used for the identification and enumeration of dead cells, such as apoptotic or necrotic cells, by flow cytometry. |
Molecular Mechanism of Action | Kit has been developed for detection and discrimination of apoptotic, necrotic, and dead cells. In principle, apoptotic cells are stained positively for Annexin V conjugation that binds to phosphotidylserine (PS), but are negative for staining with propidium iodide (PI). Dead cells are stained positive for Annexin V conjugation and PI, whereas viable cells are negative for both Annexin V conjugation and PI. |
