Please prepare 50 ml of fixed solution (ultrapure water: ethanol: acetic acid=6:3:1), 50 ml of eluent (10% ethanol), and 50 ml of termination solution (5% acetic acid) in advance.2. Please use deionized water and clean glass or plastic containers during operation, and wear disposable gloves for operation.The entire silver dyeing process needs to be carried out on a shaker, with a rotation speed of about 60 rpm.4. Self prepared ethanol and glacial acetic acid are required.Instructions for useThe dosage of each solution in the following operation steps takes the gel with a size of 8.5 × 5.5 cm and a thickness of 1.0 mm as an example. The gel is immersed in the solution completely, and is operated on a shaker, with a general dosage of 25 ml. For large gel, the dosage of each solution should be scaled up according to the gel volume. Please prepare 50 ml of fixed solution (ultrapure water: ethanol: glacial acetic acid=6:3:1), 50 ml of eluent (10% ethanol), and 50 ml of termination solution (5% glacial acetic acid) in advance.1. Water washing: After electrophoresis is completed, wash the gel twice with ultrapure water for 5 minutes each time.2. Fixation: Fix the gel twice with 25 ml of fixative solution for 15 minutes each time.3. Elution: Wash the adhesive twice with eluent, each time for 5 minutes.4. Water washing: Wash the glue twice with ultrapure water, each time for 5 minutes.5. Sensitization: put the gel washed in the previous step into the silver dye sensitization working solution, incubate it accurately for 1 minute at room temperature, and then wash it with ultrapure water for three times, each time for 20 seconds. Preparation of silver staining sensitization working solution: Take 50 µ l Silver Stain Sensitivity (500 x) and add it to 25 ml of ultrapure water, mix well.6. Silver staining: discard ultrapure water and incubate gel in silver staining working solution for 30 minutes. Preparation of silver staining working solution: Take 25ml Silver Stain and add 50 µ l Silver Stain Enhanced to mix well.7. Water washing: Quickly wash the glue twice with ultrapure water, with each washing accurately controlled for 20 seconds.8. Development: Immerse the washed gel in the developer immediately and incubate it at room temperature for 2-3 minutes until the protein strip is clear. Preparation of developer: Take 25ml Silver Stain Developer and add 30 µ l Silver Stain Enhanced to mix well. Attention: Within 30 seconds of development, protein bands begin to appear and continue to develop for 2-3 minutes. If the protein band appears lighter, the development time can be appropriately extended to 5 minutes or more.9. Termination: After washing the developer on the gel with the termination solution, soak the gel in a new termination solution to react for 10 minutes.Experimental imagesSilver staining results of BSA protein samples after 10% SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresisThe molecular weight of BSA protein is about 66 kD, and the loading amounts from left to right are 50 ng, 10 ng, and 5 ng, respectively...

Compared with other fluorescent substrates or fluorescent inhibitors of Caspase based on ( FLICA ) analysis, aladdin 488 Caspase-3 Substrate does not inhibit the apoptosis process of intact cells while detecting Caspase-3 activity. Substrate is composed of fluorescent DNA dyes coupled with Caspase-3 DEVD recognition sequence. Substrate initially had no fluorescence and entered the cytoplasm through the cell membrane. In apoptotic cells, Caspase-3 cleaves the Substrate and releases high-affinity DNA staining, which migrates to the nucleus to label DNA and emits bright green fluorescence.Therefore, aladdin 488 Caspase-3 Substrate is bifunctional, which can not only detect Caspase-3 activity, but also visualize the morphological changes of the nucleus during apoptosis. Aladdin 488 staining can be fixed in formaldehyde and compatible with subsequent immunostaining experiments.Parameters:aladdin 488：Ex/Em = 500/530 nm (with DNA)Component：Points for attention：1.Please instantaneously centrifuge the product to the bottom of the tube before use, and then carry out subsequent experiments. 2.Cells can be co-stained with a final concentration of 1µM Hoechst 33342 dye to produce blue fluorescence staining of the nucleus ( Ex / Em = 346 / 460 nm ). 3.Aladdin 488 staining can be fixed by formaldehyde, but it is not compatible with methanol fixation. 4.Formaldehyde-fixed aladdin 488-stained cells can be treated with 0.1 % TritonX-100 for subsequent staining, but the brightness of the treated staining may be weakened. 5.Fluorescent dyes all have quenching problems, please try to avoid light to slow down the fluorescence quenching. 6.For your safety and health, please wear experimental clothes and wear disposable gloves.Scope of application：Caspase 3 kit and apoptosis detectionUsage:1. Experimental optimization: The experimental steps provided below are based on the endpoint detection system. Aladdin 488 Substrate can also be used for long-term cell incubation course research. Cell density, substrate concentration, and inhibitor concentration may need to be optimized. The optimal substrate concentration may be between 1-10 µ Between M. Cells can be incubated with substrates in culture medium, PBS, or other buffer of your choice. For adherent cells, we recommend replacing them with fresh culture media containing substrates to prevent background heterogeneity. The operation of changing the medium or washing the cells after substrate incubation is freely selectable.2. We suggest that you set the following controls:A. Negative control: cells that do not induce apoptosis;B. Positive control: cells that induce apoptosis;C. Inhibitor control: Induce cell apoptosis while incubating Caspase-3/7 inhibitors (or 10-30 minutes in advance), and finally add Aladdin 488 Caspase-3 substrate.3. The Caspase-3/7 inhibitor Ac-DEVD-CHO in the Ac-DEVD-CHO Caspase-3 inhibitor control kit can be used to confirm that Caspase-3/7 depends on the fluorescence signal of aladdin 488. For inhibitor control, the final concentration of the inhibitor should be at least twice the substrate concentration (e.g. when using 5 µ At substrate M aladdin 488, the concentration of Ac-DEVD-CHO is 10 µ M). Before adding the substrate, incubate Ac-DEVD-CHO at room temperature for 15-30 minutes. After adding the substrate, continue to retain the inhibitor in the incubation solution. Ac-DEVD-CHO is a reversible competitive inhibitor. In certain cell types, effective Caspase-3/7 inhibitors require the use of irreversible inhibitors, such as Z-DEVD-FMK, or the addition of inhibitors before or during apoptosis induction.4. Flow cytometry(1) Choose appropriate methods to induce cell apoptosis, with untreated cell samples as controls.(2) Adhering cells should be digested with trypsin or other methods before performing the aladdin 488 Caspase-3 experiment.(3) Resuspend cells with culture medium or buffer to achieve a cell density of 106 cells/mL(4) Suck 0.2 mL of cell suspension into a flow cytometry test tube.(5) Inhibitor control samples were treated with Ac-DEVD-CHO on cells (see 3 above) Ac-DEVD-CHO Caspase-3 inhibitor control.(6) 200 µ Add 5 to L cell suspension µ Substrate of 0.2 mM and immediately mix to achieve a substrate concentration of 5 µ M.

Calcium is found in either the free ion form or in bound complexes, for example the calcium phosphate and calcium carbonate complexes that make up bone tissue. Numerous physiological processes, including muscle contraction, cell adhesion, hormones/ neurotransmitters release, glycogen metabolism, cell proliferation/differentiation, blood clotting, nerve or synapthetic impulse transmission, and structural support of the skeleton are regulated by calcium signaling. Defects in the integrity of cell-specific calcium signaling systems may be associated with certain human diseases.Calcium Colorimetric Assay kit has been used to measure calcium concentration in hippocampal samples and MC3T3-E1 mouse osteoblast cell line, which were cultured in osteogenic induction medium...
