| Description | Inquire | Annexin V ( annexin-V ) is a Ca2 + dependent phospholipid binding protein with a molecular weight of 35-36 KD, which can selectively bind to phosphatidylserine ( PS ). Phosphatidylserine ( PS ) is mainly distributed in the inner side of the cell membrane, that is, the side adjacent to the cytoplasm.Annexin V ( annexin-V ) is a Ca2 + dependent phospholipid binding protein with a molecular weight of 35-36 KD, which can selectively bind to phosphatidylserine ( PS ). Phosphatidylserine ( PS ) is mainly distributed in the inner side of the cell membrane, that is, the side adjacent to the cytoplasm. In the early stage of apoptosis, different types of cells will turn phosphatidylserine out to the cell surface and expose to the extracellular environment. At this time, using Annexin V labeled with fluorescent protein PE, that is, Annexin V-PE, combined with phosphatidylserine ( PS ), the eversion of phosphatidylserine, an important feature of apoptosis, can be directly detected by flow cytometry. Normal cells will not be stained by Annexin V-PE, apoptotic or necrotic cells will be stained by Annexin V-PE. Annexin V-PE can be used in combination with partially non-permeable nuclear dye ( 7-AAD / PI ) to distinguish cells at different stages of apoptosis. RedNucleus II provided in this kit is a far-red dye that belongs to an anthraquinone compound and cannot penetrate the intact cell membrane of living cells and early apoptotic cells. It is non-permeable, but can quickly stain the nucleus / dsDNA in dead and permeable cells. RedNucleus II is an ideal substitute for propidium iodide ( PI ) and 7-AAD.Combined with Annexin V-PE, it has better spectral characteristics without compensation regulation : it is not excited by ultraviolet light and does not overlap with PE / PE homologues, so it can be combined with FITC, PE and purple fluorescent dyes for multicolor analysis. When combined with Annexin V-PE, RedNucleus II was excluded from living cells and early apoptotic cells, while late apoptotic cells and dead cells were double-positive for Annexin V-PE and RedNucleus II. Annexin V-PE / RedNucleus II apoptosis detection kit can be detected by flow cytometry or other fluorescence detection equipment.

Experimental design: Blank tube: Negative control group cells, without Annexin V-PE/RedNucleus II. Used to regulate voltage.Single staining tube: Positive control group cells were treated with Annexin V-PE alone/RedNucleus II alone. Used for adjusting compensation.Detection tube: Add Annexin V-PE/RedNucleus II to the processed cells. After adjusting the voltage compensation using blank tubes and single dye tubes, obtain the required flow data.2. Collect cells(1) For suspended cells:a. After inducing cell apoptosis, centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes, discard the supernatant, collect the cells, gently resuspend the cells in PBS, and count them.Note: PBS resuspension cannot be omitted. The process of PBS resuspension also serves to wash cells, ensuring the subsequent binding of Annexin V-PE.b. Take 5 × 104-1 × 105 resuspended cells, centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes, discard the supernatant, and add 100 µ L of 1 × Annexin V binding buffer to gently resuspend the cells. c. Add 5 µ L Annexin V-PE and mix gently.d. Add 5 µ L of RedNucleus II staining solution and mix gently.e. Incubate at room temperature (20-25 º C) in the dark for 15 minutes. Aluminum foil can be used to avoid light. During the incubation process, cells can be resuspended 2-3 times to improve staining efficiency.(2) For adherent cells:a. Suck out the cell culture medium into a suitable centrifuge tube, wash the adherent cells with PBS once, and add an appropriate amount of trypsin cell digestion solution (without EDTA) to digest the cells. Incubate at room temperature until gently blowing can remove the trypsin cell digestion solution when the adherent cells are blown down. Overdigestion of pancreatic enzymes should be avoided.Note: For adherent cells, the trypsin digestion step is crucial. If the trypsin digestion time is too short, cells need to be blown hard to detach, which can easily cause damage to the cell membrane and lead to false positives of cell necrosis; If the digestion time is too long, it can also cause cell membrane damage and false positives of cell necrosis, and even affect the binding of phosphatidylserine and Annexin V-PE on the cell membrane, thereby interfering with the detection of cell apoptosis.b. Add the cell culture medium collected in the previous step, gently blow down the cells, transfer them to a centrifuge tube, centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes, discard the supernatant, collect the cells, gently resuspend the cells in PBS and count them.Note: Adding the cell culture medium from the previous step is very important. On the one hand, it can collect cells that have already been suspended and undergone apoptosis or necrosis. On the other hand, the serum in the cell culture medium can effectively inhibit or neutralize residual trypsin. The residual trypsin will digest and degrade the subsequently added Annexin V-PE, leading to staining failure.c. Take 5 × 104-1 × 105 resuspended cells, centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes, discard the supernatant, and add 100 µ L of 1 × Annexin V binding buffer to gently resuspend the cells. d. Add 5 µ L Annexin V-PE and mix gently.e. Add 5 µ L of RedNucleus II staining solution and mix gently.f. Incubate at room temperature (20-25 º C) in the dark for 15 minutes. Aluminum foil can be used to avoid light. During the incubation process, cells can be resuspended 2-3 times to improve staining efficiency.3. Result analysis:(1) Flow cytometry detection:a. After incubation, 400 µ L of 1 × Annexin V binding buffer can be directly added to resuspend the cells, and immediately detected on the machine. Annexin V-PE is excited by 488 nm/566 nm laser, and the fluorescence emission spectrum is detected at 578 nm (BL2 (FL2)/YL1 channel), while the RedNucleus II channel emission spectrum is approximately at 695 nm (RL1 (FL4) channel).b. On the scatter plot of the bivariate flow cytometer, live cells are shown in the lower left quadrant, which is (Annexin V-PE -/RedNucleus II -); The lower right quadrant represents early apoptotic cells, which are (Annexin V-PE+/RedNucleus II -); The upper right quadrant represents necrotic and late stage apoptotic cells, which are (Annexin V-PE+/RedNucleus II+); The upper left quadrant displays naked nuclear cells, which are (Annexin V-PE -/RedNucleus II+).(2) Fluorescence microscopy detection:a. Centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes, collect cells, and gently resuspend them in 400 µ L of 1 × Annexin V binding buffer. Transfer the cells to a 96 well plate and settle for a moment or perform cell smear, then observe under a fluorescence microscope.b. Annexin V-PE is compatible with PE filters. RedNucleus II can use a far red long pass filter.Matters needing attention:1. please centrifuge the product to the bottom of the tube immediately before use, and then conduct subsequent experiments. 2. to reduce the process of apoptosis, the incubation process can be operated on ice, but the incubation time should be extended to at least 30 min. 3. as apoptosis is a rapid process, it is recommended that samples be analyzed within 1 h after staining. 4. for adherent cells, digestion is a key step. If there are floating cells when adherent cells induce apoptosis, the floating cells and adherent cells should be collected and stained. Handle adherent cells with care to avoid artificial damage to cells. The trypsin digestion time is too short, and the cells need to be blown hard to fall off, which is easy to cause damage to the cell membrane and excessive intake of rednucleus II; If the digestion time is too long, the cell membrane is also prone to damage, and even affect the binding of phosphatidylserine and annexin v-pe on the cell membrane. When digesting, spread pancreatin on the bottom of the well plate, fully contact the pancreatin with the cells when shaking gently, then pour out most of the pancreatin, use the remaining small amount of pancreatin to digest for a period of time, and terminate when the gap between cells increases and the bottom of the bottle is spotted. Try not to use EDTA in the digestive juice, which will affect the binding of annexin V to PS. 5. after the adherent cells are digested with trypsin, it is recommended to stain after recovering in the optimal culture conditions and medium for about 30 min to avoid false positives. 6. in order to avoid losing cells when washing cells, you can use a large tip over a small tip to aspirate. 7. the optimal concentration of dye is determined by the specific experimental requirements. 8. fluorescent dyes have quenching problems. Please try to avoid light during storage and use to slow down fluorescence quenching. 9. for your safety and health, please wear experimental clothes and disposable gloves.Scope of application:Early apoptosis detection, annexin V Kit...

Through the unique centrifugal adsorption column and the DNA washing elution step, 100 bp-10 kb DNA fragments can be recovered and purified from ordinary or low melting point agarose gel. The sol speed is fast and the recovery rate is high. The sol solution contains a pH indicator, which can be used to determine whether the sol recovery has reached the optimal state based on its color. Each adsorption column can adsorb up to 10 µ G DNA, while effectively removing impurities such as primers, enzymes, mineral oil, and agarose. The purified and recovered DNA has high purity and concentration, good integrity, and can be directly used for molecular biology experiments such as sequencing, linking and transformation, labeling, and in vitro transcription.Self prepared reagents: anhydrous ethanol, isopropanol.Preparation and important precautions before the experiment:1.Before the first use, anhydrous ethanol should be added to the Buffer PW according to the instructions on the reagent bottle label.2. Before use, please check the Buffer PG. If crystallization or precipitation occurs, it can be left in a 37 ℃ water bath for 3-5 minutes to restore clarity.3. It is best to use a new electrophoresis buffer during electrophoresis to avoid affecting the electrophoresis and recovery efficiency; The following experiment requires high requirements, please use TAE electrophoresis buffer as much as possible.4.When cutting glue, the UV irradiation time should be as short as possible to avoid damage to DNA.5. The recovery rate is related to the initial amount of DNA and the elution volume. The smaller the initial amount, the smaller the elution volume, and the lower the recovery rate.6. Preheat the water bath to 50 ℃.7. Buffer PG contains a pH indicator. When the pH is ≤ 7.5, the color of the solution is yellow, and DNA can effectively bind to the membrane. When the pH is too high, the color of the solution turns orange red and purple, which needs to be adjusted.8. All centrifugation steps can be performed at room temperature.Operation steps:1. Cut the single purpose DNA strip from the agarose gel (try to cut the excess), put it into a clean centrifuge tube (self prepared), and weigh and calculate the weight of the gel (record the weight of the centrifuge tube in advance).Attention: If the volume of the adhesive block is too large, it can be cut into small pieces.2. Add one time of the volume of Buffer PG (if the gel weighs 100 mg, its volume can be regarded as 100 µ l. And so on.3.50 ℃ water bath and gently invert the centrifuge tube every 2-3 minutes until the sol turns yellow to ensure full dissolution of the gel block. If there are still unsolved glue blocks, you can add some more sol solution or continue to let it stand for a few minutes until the glue blocks are completely dissolved.Note: 1) After the gel is completely dissolved, the gel solution is yellow, and subsequent operations can be carried out; If the glue solution is orange red or purple, 10-30 can be added to the glue solution µ 3 M sodium acetate (pH 5.0), adjust the color of the solution to yellow before proceeding with subsequent operations.2) After the gel block is completely dissolved, it is best to lower the temperature of the gel solution to room temperature before loading the column. The adsorption column has a weaker ability to bind DNA at higher temperatures.4. (Optional step) When the recovered fragment is less than 300 bp, add 1/2 of the gel volume of isopropanol, and mix it upside down (if the gel weighs 100 mg, add 50 µ Isopropanol of L.5. Column balance: Add 200 to the spin columns DM that have been loaded into the collection tube µ Centrifuge at 13000 rpm (~16200 × g) for 1 minute, discard the waste liquid in the collection tube, and place the adsorption column back into the collection tube.6. Add the solution obtained from steps 3 or 4 to the adsorption column that has been loaded into the collection tube, let it stand at room temperature for 2 minutes, centrifuge at 13000 rpm for 1 minute, discard the waste liquid in the collection tube, and place the adsorption column in the collection tube.Attention: The volume of the adsorption column is 750 µ l. If the sample volume is greater than 750 µ L can be added in batches.7. Add 450 to the adsorption column µ LBuffer PW (please check if anhydrous ethanol has been added before use), centrifuge at 13000 rpm for 1 minute, discard the waste liquid in the collection tube, and place the adsorption column in the collection tube.Note: If purified DNA is used for salt sensitive experiments (such as flat end ligation or direct sequencing), it is recommended to add Buffer PW and let it stand for 2-5 minutes before centrifugation.8. Repeat step 7.9.13000 rpm for 1 minute and discard the waste liquid from the collection tube.Note: The purpose of this step is to remove residual ethanol from the adsorption column, which can affect subsequent enzymatic reactions (such as enzyme digestion, PCR, etc.).10. Place the adsorption column into a new 1.5 ml centrifuge tube (provided by oneself), and add 50 drops to the middle position of the adsorption membrane in the air µ L Buffer EB, leave at room temperature for 2 minutes. Centrifuge at 13000 rpm for 1 minute and collect DNA solution- Store DNA at 20 ℃.Attention:1) To improve the recovery of DNA, the solution obtained by centrifugation can be re dropped onto the adsorption column, left at room temperature for 2 minutes, and centrifuged at 13000 rpm for 1 minute.2) The elution volume should not be less than 30 µ l. A small volume will affect the recovery efficiency.3) When recovering DNA fragments larger than 10 kb, Buffer EB should be preheated in a 50 ℃ water bath to increase recovery efficiency.Note: This reagent kit is also suitable for the purification and recovery of PCR products. Add an equal volume of Buffer PG to the PCR reaction solution and mix thoroughly (for small fragments with a recovery of less than 150bp, the solution volume can be increased to three times to improve the recovery rate).
