| 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 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole （DAPI）, 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.A1456540Components20 T50 T100 TStorageQuantity Per TestA1456540A10× Annexin V Binding Buffer5 mL10 mL20 mL2-8℃200 µL per 0.5-1.0 × 10⁵ cellsA1456540BAnnexin V -PE-Cy5200 µL500 µL1000 µL2-8℃.

Before the first use, anhydrous ethanol should be added to Buffer RW2 according to the instructions on the reagent bottle label.5. This reagent kit cannot be used for RNA extraction from frozen blood samples with anticoagulants added.6.10 × Buffer RBL needs to be diluted 10 times with water without RNase before use, and then stored at 2-8 ℃ after dilution.7. If downstream experiments are highly sensitive to DNA, it is recommended to treat RNA with DNase I that does not contain RNase.8. All centrifugation steps should be carried out at room temperature unless otherwise specified, and all operation steps should be carried out quickly.Operation steps1. Add 5 times the volume of 1 x Buffer RBL to fresh anticoagulant whole blood samples of 0.5-1.5 ml (please dilute 10 x Buffer RBL with RNase free water before use), gently vortex or invert and mix well. Incubate on ice for 10-15 minutes, mix twice during the incubation process.Attention: During the incubation process, the cloudy suspension will become transparent, indicating that red blood cells have been lysed. If necessary, the incubation time can be extended to 20 minutes. 2. Centrifuge at 4 ℃, 2100 rpm (~400 × g) for 10 minutes, and carefully discard the supernatant.3. Add 2 times the volume of the blood sample to the above precipitate with 1 x Buffer RBL (please dilute 10 x Buffer RBL with RNase free water before use), gently vortex, and resuspend the precipitate thoroughly. 4. Centrifuge at 4 ℃ and 2100 rpm for 10 minutes, carefully and thoroughly remove the supernatant.Note: This step must completely remove the supernatant, otherwise it will affect the lysis and lead to a decrease in RNA production.5. Add Buffer RL to the precipitate (check if it has been added before use β- Mercaptoethanol, 0.5-1.5 ml of blood sample added to 600 µ L Buffer RL, or less than 0.5 ml of blood sample added to 350 µ L Buffer RL, mix well.6.
