| Description | Cell proliferation assays are widely used in the evaluation of cell viability, genotoxicity, and the efficacy of antitumor drugs. Direct detection of DNA synthesis in cells is considered the most accurate method for assessing cell proliferation. EdU (5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine) is a Cell proliferation assays are widely used in the evaluation of cell viability, genotoxicity, and the efficacy of antitumor drugs. Direct detection of DNA synthesis in cells is considered the most accurate method for assessing cell proliferation. EdU (5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine) is a novel thymidine (thymine deoxyribonucleoside) analogue. During DNA synthesis, EdU can be incorporated into newly synthesized DNA in place of thymidine. The ethynyl group on EdU can undergo a covalent reaction with fluorescently labeled small-molecule azide probes (such as Azide Alexa Fluor 488, Azide Alexa Fluor 555, Azide Alexa Fluor 594, Azide Alexa Fluor 647, etc.) via Cu(I)-catalyzed click chemistry, forming a stable triazole ring. This reaction is highly efficient and is referred to as the Click reaction. Through this process, newly synthesized DNA is labeled with the corresponding fluorescent probes, enabling the detection of proliferating cells using appropriate fluorescence detection equipment.Product Component TableE1456506Component50 T100 T200 TStorage conditionsQuantity Per TestE1456506AEdU(10 mM)100µL200µL400µL-20℃.Store in the dark.2 µL per 1.0-2.0 × 10⁶ cellsE1456506B6-FAM125µL250µL500µL-20℃.Store in the dark.2.5 µL per 1.0-2.0 × 10⁶ cellsE1456506CClick Reaction Buffer13 mL26 mL52 mL-20℃.Store in the dark.237.5 µL per 1.0-2.0 × 10⁶ cellsE1456506DCuSO40.5 mL1 mL2 mL-20℃.10 µL per 1.0-2.0 × 10⁶ cellsE1456506EClick Additive248 mg496 mg992 mg-20℃.Store in the dark.250 µL per 1.0-2.0 × 10⁶ cellsE1456506FDAPI Staining Solution（1000×）25 µL50 µL100µL-20℃.Store in the dark.0.5 µL per 1.0-2.0 × 10⁶ cells Usage Protocol1. Preparation1) Preparation of Click Additive Solution: For a 50-test kit: Add 12.5 mL of pre-chilled deionized water to the tube. Mix thoroughly until completely dissolved to obtain the Click Additive Solution. For a 100-test kit: Add 25 mL of pre-chilled deionized water to the tube. Mix thoroughly until completely dissolved to obtain the Click Additive Solution. For a 200-test kit: Add 50 mL of pre-chilled deionized water to the tube. Mix thoroughly until completely dissolved to obtain the Click Additive Solution. After preparation, aliquot the solution as needed and store at -20°C. If a white precipitate forms after dissolution, invert the tube repeatedly until it is fully dissolved before use. If the solution turns brown, it indicates degradation of the active component; discard it.2) Upon initial dissolution of the Click Reaction Buffer, aliquot it according to the number of samples per experiment and store at -20°C.2. EdU Labeling of CellsIt is recommended to use a final EdU concentration of 10 µM (1×). A 1:500 dilution of EdU (10 mM) in cell culture medium yields a 2× EdU working solution (20 µM). Mix an equal volume of pre-warmed (37°C) 2× EdU working solution (20 µM) with the cell suspension to achieve a final 1× EdU concentration. Incubate in a 37°C, 5% CO₂ incubator. Factors such as cell culture medium, cell density, cell type, and other experimental conditions may affect labeling efficiency. Therefore, the optimal EdU concentration and labeling duration must be empirically determined based on the cell type under investigation.3. Fixation and Permeabilization1) Harvest cells and centrifuge at 300 ×g for 5 min. Wash cells twice with PBS containing 2% FBS.2) Fix cells with 4% paraformaldehyde solution. Mix thoroughly and incubate for 15 min at room temperature protected from light.3) Collect cells and centrifuge at 300 × g for 5 min. Wash cells twice.4) Resuspend cells in PBS containing 0.1% Triton X-100. Mix well and incubate for 15 min at room temperature.5) Centrifuge at 300 × g for 5 min and wash cells twice.4. Fluorescent Labeling1) This protocol is based on a 500 µL reaction system per 2 × 10⁶ cells. The volume of the Click reaction mixture can be adjusted according to the experimental sample size.2) Centrifuge the cells at 300 ×g for 5 minutes. Add 500 µL of Click reaction mixture per sample, mix gently, and incubate for 30 minutes at room temperature protected from light.3) After the reaction, wash the cells twice with PBS containing 2% FBS.4) Dilute the DAPI Staining Solution (1000×) to 1× using PBS containing 2% FBS. Add 250 µL of the diluted DAPI solution to each sample and incubate for 5 minutes at room temperature.5) Add an additional 250 µL of PBS containing 2% FBS, mix gently, and proceed to detection using an appropriate flow cytometry instrument.Precautions1. Strictly adhere to the component order and volumes specified in the table above when preparing the Click reaction mixture, as deviations may affect subsequent experimental results.2. The Click reaction mixture must be used within 15 minutes of preparation.3. To avoid fluorescence quenching, perform detection as soon as possible after sample preparation...

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. Note: Digest with trypsin and allow the cells to recover in the optimal cell culture conditions and medium for about 30 minutes, then stain.(2) For suspended cells, centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes, discard the supernatant, and wash once with pre cooled PBS.2. Cell stainingSuspend cells in pre cooled PBS, with a recommended cell count of 106 cells/mL per sample. Add 1 µ L Oxazole Yellow and 1 µ L to 1 mL of the samplePI， Gently blow and mix well. Incubate on ice in the dark for 30 minutes. Note: We suggest adding the following two experimental controls:Blank tube: negative control group cells, without dye, used to regulate voltage.Single staining tube: Positive control group cells were treated with only two tubes, Oxazole yellow and PI, for regulating compensation.3. Flow detectionAfter incubation, the sample can be directly detected by flow cytometry, or centrifuged at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes, the supernatant can be aspirated, and the sample can be resuspended in 1 mL of pre cooled PBS for flow cytometry detection. Oxazole yellow can be excited by a 488 nm laser, and the detected fluorescence emission spectrum is around 530 ± 30 nm (FITC channel), while the PI channel emission spectrum is around 617 nm (PI or PE channel).Product parameters：Oxazole yellow dye:ex/em = 491 / 509 nm (bound DNA); Propidium iodine:ex/em = 535 / 617 nm (combined with DMatters needing attention：1. please centrifuge the product to the bottom of the tube immediately before use, and then conduct subsequent experiments. 2. fluorescent dyes have quenching problems.

Products IntroductionThe SuperFast Probe One Step RT-qPCR U+ Kit is designed for quantitative PCR assays using RNA as a template (e.g., RNA viruses). Using gene-specific primers (GSP), reverse transcription and qPCR reactions are completed in a single tube, eliminating the need for additional tube-opening/pipetting operations, greatly increasing throughput and reducing the risk of contamination. The dUTP/UNG anti-contamination system is introduced in this kit. The heat-sensitive UNG rapidly degrades U-containing contaminants at room temperature; it is rapidly inactivated by reverse transcription at 55°C, without affecting the efficiency and sensitivity of qRT-PCR. Combined with optimized buffer systems and antibody-modified Taq enzymes and mutated M-MLV, the SuperFast Probe One Step RT-qPCR U+ Kit provides sensitivity up to 0.1 pg of total RNA or <10 copies of RNA template and enhanced thermal stability. 5× SuperFast One Step RT-qPCR U+ Buffer contains the following components The 5× SuperFast One Step RT-qPCR U+ Buffer contains an optimized buffer system and dNTP/dUTP Mix, which is particularly suitable for high specificity, low template concentration and multiplexed rapid detection of fluorescently labeled probes such as TaqMan. caveatBefore use, please mix the product gently by turning it up and down after it is completely melted to avoid foaming, and use it after brief centrifugation. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing of the product.ROX dye is used to correct the fluorescence signal error between the quantitative PCR wells, this product does not contain ROX dye, if you need to match the ROX dye with the instrument you are using, please contact your local business or call CombiSense customer service at 4006-222-360. PCR reaction system Attention: (1) Usually, the final primer concentration of 0.2 µM can get better results, and 0.1-1.0 µM can be used as a reference for setting the range. If the amplification efficiency is not high, the concentration of primer can be increased; if non-specific reaction occurs, the concentration of primer can be decreased to optimize the reaction system.(2) The final concentration of the probe used is related to the fluorescence quantitative PCR instrument used, the type of probe, and the type of fluorescent labeling substance, please refer to the instrument manual or the specific requirements for the use of each fluorescent probe to adjust the concentration.3) Because templates from different species contain different numbers of copies of the target gene, the template can be diluted in a gradient to determine the optimal amount of template to usePCR reaction conditionsmovetemptimingcirculatereverse transcription55°C1 min1premutability95°C10s1)1denaturation95°C1 s40-45Annealing/Extension55-60°C2)10-15s3)40-45Attention: (1) The enzyme used in this product is activated under the condition of pre-denaturation at 95℃ for 30s. Under this condition, most of the templates can be well unchained. For templates with high GC content and complex secondary structure, the pre-denaturation time can be extended to 1min, so as to make the starting template fully unchained, and if the high temperature treatment time is too long, it will affect the activity of the enzyme; for simple templates, pre-denaturation time of 1-10s can also be used, and the optimal pre-denaturation time can be determined according to the template situation.(2) It is recommended to use two-step PCR reaction program, the annealing temperature should be 55-60℃ as the reference range, and the annealing temperature can be increased when non-specific reaction occurs. If you can't get good results due to the use of primers with low Tm values or long amplification products, you can try three-step PCR amplification.3) Whether the actual Real Time PCR instrument used supports rapid amplification cycles, please perform a pre-experiment to verify this for the first attempt...
