| 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 distribution 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.

This kit is composed of CFDASE powder, solvent and staining buffer. CFDASE is a derivative of fluorescein diacetate (FDA), which has cell membrane permeability and CFDASE cell proliferation and tracking detection kit is a kit for cell proliferation and tracking detection based on CFDA se. This kit is composed of CFDASE powder, solvent and staining buffer. CFDASE is a derivative of fluorescein diacetate (FDA), which has cell membrane permeability and does not have fluorescence luminescence. When CFDASE penetrates the cell membrane into living cells, it can be catalysed by esterases in the cytosol to produce carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester (CFSE), which can emit strong green fluorescence, cannot penetrate the cell membrane, and can remain intact in the cell. CFSE can also spontaneously and irreversibly covalently bind to intracellular amino groups to couple to cellular proteins. Meanwhile, the excess and uncoupled CFDASE returned to the extracellular medium by passive diffusion and was cleared by subsequent washing steps. The fluorescence of non dividing cells labeled by CFDASE is very stable, and the stable labeling time can reach several months, so it is very suitable for cell community analysis. The fluorescence of CFDASE labeled cells is very homogeneous, which is superior to other cell tracking fluorescent probes used previously, such as PKH26, and the fluorescence distribution of the divided progeny cells is also very uniform. In the process of cell division and proliferation, CFSE labeled fluorescence can be evenly distributed to the two progeny cells, and the fluorescence intensity becomes half of the parental cells. According to the fluorescence intensity, flow cytometer (FL1 channel) can detect undivided cells, cells that divide once (1 / 2 of the fluorescence intensity), twice (1 / 4 of the fluorescence intensity), three times (1 / 8 of the fluorescence intensity), and cells that divide more times. CFDASE can detect up to eight or more cleavages. CFDASE labeled cells can be used for proliferation studies in vitro and in vivo, and have the function of not staining adjacent cells. CFDASE is most commonly used to detect the proliferation of lymphocytes, and can also be used to detect the proliferation of fibroblasts, NK cells and other cells. CFDASE labeled cells showed green fluorescence. In addition to flow cytometry to detect cell proliferation, fluorescence microscopy can also be used for homogeneous staining of cell tracking observation.Components:ComponentsC598182-20TC598182-500TA.

Centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes at room temperature to remove the supernatant and complete the final wash.(7) Subsequently, the cells can be cultured using the normal cultivation method. The labeling effect can be directly observed under a fluorescence microscope, or cell proliferation can be detected by flow cytometry after appropriate cultivation time, showing green fluorescence. The labeled cells can also be used for transplantation in live animals and for fluorescence tracing.Note: a If cell fixation is required, use aldehyde fixatives such as 4% paraformaldehyde to fix at room temperature for 15 minutes; If additional labeling such as antibody labeling is required afterwards, please permeabilize the cells with ice acetone for 10 minutes. b. The optimal labeling concentration and incubation time for CFDA SE vary for different cells. The initial experiment can be conducted according to the experimental steps. If the effect is not satisfactory, it is recommended to adjust the staining concentration and incubation time to achieve the best labeling effect.Scope of application：Cell proliferation assay...

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.

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.

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.
