Cell Cycle Product introduction：Product introduction：Cell Cycle Assay Kit Plus ( Cell Cycle Assay Kit Plus ) has certain applicability for live cells and fixed cell cycle detection. For different types of cells, whether it is applicable or not needs to be determined after testing. Cell Cycle Assay Kit Plus ( Cell Cycle Assay Kit Plus ) uses RedNucleus I staining to detect cell cycle. RedNucleus I is a far-infrared nucleic acid dye with cell membrane permeability, which can quickly enter living cells, specifically bind to DNA, and perform cell cycle detection on living cells without RNase digestion. Compared with the traditional PI staining method, the cells do not need to be broken or fixed, and the operation is simpler. RedNucleus I is a fluorescent dye of double-stranded DNA, and the fluorescence intensity after binding to double-stranded DNA is proportional to the content of double-stranded DNA. The intracellular DNA content can be measured by flow cytometry, and then the cell cycle analysis can be carried out according to the distribution of DNA content. After RedNucleus I staining, assuming that the fluorescence intensity of G0 / G1 phase cells is 1, the theoretical value of the fluorescence intensity of G2 / M phase cells containing two copies of genomic DNA is 2, and the fluorescence intensity of S phase cells undergoing DNA replication is between 1-2. In addition, RedNucleus I is compatible with dyes such as Horizon BV / BUV, FITC and R-PE, and can be periodically detected after sample staining.The kit is usually used to detect the cell cycle of cultured adherent or suspended cells. If it is used for cell cycle detection of tissues, the tissues must be digested into a single cell state.Matters needing attention：1. please centrifuge the product to the bottom of the tube immediately before use, and then conduct subsequent experiments. 2. this product is applicable to the detection of living cells and fixed cell cycle with certain limitations. Whether it is applicable to different types of cells needs to be determined after testing. If fixation is needed, it is recommended to use ice bath pre cooling 75-80% ethanol -20 ℃ to fix cells overnight. 3. fluorescent dyes have quenching problems. Please try to avoid light during storage and use to slow down fluorescence quenching. 4. for your safety and health, please wear experimental clothes and disposable gloves.Instruction： Experimental materials ( self-provided )：①cell lines or other cell samples ( self-prepared ) ；②This kit ; ③ trypsin ( self-prepared ) ;④ Cell culture medium containing FBS ( self-prepared ) ; Experimental procedure： 1.Preparation of cell samples : ( 1 ) ( This step is for adherent cells, if suspended cells, can be carried out directly step ( 2 ) ) Digest cells with trypsin, add cell culture medium, gently blow away cells, collected into the centrifuge tube.

Apoptosis generally refers to a programmed cell death process that occurs during the development of body cells or under the Apoptosis refers to the cell autonomous and orderly death controlled by genes to maintain the stability of the internal environment. Apoptosis is different from cell necrosis. Apoptosis generally refers to a programmed cell death process that occurs during the development of body cells or under the action of some factors through the regulation of intracellular genes and their products. Cell necrosis is a cell death process that is caused by strong physical and chemical or biological factors to cause disordered changes in cells. The difference between apoptosis and necrosis lies in the characteristic morphological and biochemical changes, including the changes of cell membrane permeability and nuclear chromatin, the contraction of cytoplasm and the loss of membrane asymmetry. The oxazole yellow/pi membrane permeability apoptosis detection kit produced by our company is a dual fluorescence detection kit based on oxazole yellow and PI dyes. This kit is suitable for fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, fluorescence microplate reader and other fluorescence detection systems. Oxazole yellow is a non cell membrane penetrating cyanine monomer green fluorescent dye with high affinity for DNA. It basically has no fluorescence when it is not bound to DNA, but can emit bright green fluorescence after binding to DNA. When apoptosis occurs, the permeability of cell membrane changes. At this time, oxazole yellow can enter the cell and bind to DNA, emitting bright green fluorescence. Therefore, it is often used for the detection of apoptosis. It should be noted that oxazole yellow can also stain dead cells, so it needs to be double stained with PI that specifically fluorescently stains dead cells to effectively determine apoptosis. PI (propidium iodide) is a red fluorescent dye that can stain DNA. It is an analog of pyridine bromide that releases red fluorescence after embedding double stranded DNA. Although PI cannot pass through the membrane of living cells, it can cross the damaged cell membrane of dead cells to stain nuclei. Therefore, oxazole yellow combined with PI can be directly used for the detection of apoptosis. Apoptotic cells show green fluorescence, dead cells show both red and green fluorescence positive, and living cells have little or no fluorescence.Components: Components O598364-50T A. Oxazole yellow dye 50 µL B. Propidium Iodide (PI) 50 µLUsage (using flow cytometry as an example):1. Cell preparation(1) For adherent cells, after trypsin digestion, resuspend in culture medium and wash once with pre cooled PBS; The digestion time of trypsin should not be too long to prevent false positives.
