| Description | Annexins are a family of calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins that preferentially bind phosphatidylserine (PS). Under normal physiologic conditions, PS is predominantly located in the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane. Upon initiation of apoptosis, PS loses its asymmetric Annexins are a family of calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins that preferentially bind phosphatidylserine (PS). Under normal physiologic conditions, PS is predominantly located in the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane. Upon initiation of apoptosis, PS loses its asymmetric distribution across the phospholipid bilayer and is translocated to the extracellular membrane leaflet marking cells as targets of phagocytosis. Once on the outer surface of the membrane, PS can be detected by fluorescently labeled Annexin V in a calcium-dependent manner. In early-stage apoptosis, the plasma membrane excludes viability dyes such as propidium iodide (PI), 7-AAD. These cells will stain with Annexin V but not a viability dye, thus distinguishing cells in early apoptosis. However, in late stage apoptosis, the cell membrane loses integrity thereby allowing Annexin V to also access PS in the interior of the cell. A viability dye can be used to resolve these late-stage apoptotic and necrotic cells (Annexin V, viability dye-positive) from the early-stage apoptotic cells (Annexin V positive, viability dye-negative). This kit is suitable for the identification and enumeration of dead cells, such as apoptotic or necrotic cells, by flow cytometry.

Please try to avoid light when using to slow down the quenching of fluorescence. 2. 7-AAD Solution is toxigenic and mutagenic; handle with care. 3. Since the binding of annexin V to phosphatidylserine (PS) is calcium-dependent, it is critical to avoid buffers containing EDTA or other calcium chelators during Annexin V experiments. Instruction for use 1. Dilute 10x Binding Buffer to 1x using distilled water (1 mL 10x Binding Buffer + 9 mL ddH2O). 2. Wash cells twice with cold PBS and then resuspend the desired amount of cells in Annexin V Binding Buffer at a concentration of 0.5-1.0x10⁶ cells /mL . 3. Add 2 µL of FITC Annexin V and 5 µL 7-AAD to 100 µL of the cell suspension. 4. Add 100 µL of 1x Binding Buffer to each assay. Gently vortex the cells and incubate for 10 min at RT (25°C) in the dark. 5. Analyze by flow cytometry within 1 hr...

AChE is located at the synaptic cleft and functions to terminate synaptic transmission by catalyzing the breakdown of ACh allowing cholinergic neurons to return to a resting state after activation. It is also found in membranes of red blood cells, motor and sensory fibers, muscles, nerves and central and peripheral tissues. Changes in AChE activity may result from exposure to certain insecticides, which act as cholinesterase inhibitors. Inhibitors of AChE are also used to treat certain conditions such as dementia.Acetylcholinesterase activity assay kit has been used to determine the activity of acetylcholinesterase in a rat organophosphate model and in brain tissue homogenates.Principle：Acetylcholinesterase can catalyze the hydrolysis of acetylcholine to choline, and the reaction of choline with disulfide p-nitrobenzoic acid to produce 5-merhydryl-nitrobenzoic acid (TNB). The product has a characteristic absorption peak at 412 nm, and the activity of acetylcholinesterase can be characterized by the change of light absorption valueThe Dilution Calculator EquationConcentration (start)xVolume (start)= Concentration (final)× Volume (final)This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2...

Remove the centrifuge tube from the constant temperature mixer, centrifuge briefly, and take the supernatant.Attention: If there is no constant temperature mixer, vortex the centrifuge tube for 10 seconds and incubate it in a 75 ℃ water bath for 30 minutes. During this period, vortex every 10 minutes for 10 seconds.3. Suck the supernatant into a new 2.0 mL centrifuge tube and add 300 µ L Buffer MSL, 300 µ L isopropanol and 20 µ L Magheads V3.
