| 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).We offer recombinant Annexin V conjugated to a numerous fluorophores, as well as an Annexin V biotin conjugate which can be detected with fluorophore-labeled streptavidin. By binding to PS, fluorophores labeled Annexin V can be used to detect and quantify apoptotic cells via flow cytometry or fluorescence microscopy. The excitation and emission maxima of the Annexin V conjugates are summarized in the following table.

Please try to avoid light when using to slow down the quenching of fluorescence.2. Propidium Iodide Solution is toxigenic and mutagenic; handle with care.3. Due to the calcium dependence of the Annexin V:PS interaction, it is critical to avoid buffers containing EDTA or other calcium chelators during Annexin V experiments.Instruction for use1. Dilute 10X Binding Buffer (A1372288) 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 amounts of cells in Annexin V Binding Buffer at a concentration of 1.0-5.0 x 106 cells/mL.3. Add 5 µL of Annexin V-AF488 to 100 µL of the cell suspension. Stain with a viability dye, such as PI (P1373641; P1372285), 7-AAD (A1372406), or DAPI (D1372407) dyes, if desired.4. Gently vortex the cells and incubate for 10 min at RT (25°C) in the dark.5. Add 100 µL of 1X Binding Buffer to each assay. Analyze by flow cytometry within 1 hr...

Products Introduction This product is a premixed system consisting of a new high efficient fast DNA Polymerase, Mg2+, dNTPs, and PCR stabilizers and enhancers at 2× concentration. It is a new rapid DNA polymerase developed by CombiSigma with high amplification speed and stability. The extension speed is up to 5 s/kb, and the PCR can be completed in as little as 15 minutes, while longer fragments (>3 kb) or complex templates can be extended at a speed of 10-30 s/kb or a higher number of cycles. The unique MasterMix formula makes the whole reaction system very stable, while complex templates can be amplified effectively, and more than 98% of PCR amplification can be successful in one run. Simply add the DNA template and primers and top up with water to minimize human error, contamination and time.The dye (blue) has been added to the product and it is ready for electrophoretic detection at the end of the reaction. The PCR product is amplified with an 'A' base at the 3′ end and can therefore be used directly for T/A cloning and is suitable for use in the CombiVerge Seamless Cloning Kit, T4 Ligation Kit and sensory products.This product is mainly suitable for ultra-fast PCR, complex templates, complex secondary structures, gene cloning and large-scale genetic testing that requires high fidelity. quality control No exogenous nuclease activity was detected; no host residual DNA was detected by PCR; single-copy genes in various genomes could be amplified efficiently. UsageThe following is an example of a PCR reaction system and reaction conditions for amplifying a 1 kb fragment using human genomic DNA as a template, which should be improved and optimized according to the template, primer structure and size of the target fragment in actual operation.PCR reaction system Note: Please use the final concentration of 0.1-1.0 µM as a reference for setting the range of primer concentration. If the amplification efficiency is not high, the primer concentration can be increased; if a non-specific reaction occurs, the primer concentration can be decreased to optimize the reaction system.PCR reaction conditions Note: 1) Note: For simple templates, the pre-denaturation time can be controlled at 30 s-1 min, for complex templates such as bacterial fluids, the pre-denaturation time can be increased to 2 min.Optimization of parameter settings 1. Template DNA amount setting:Excessive amounts of template may result in non-specific amplification or smear. The recommended amount of template DNA in a 50 µl PCR reaction system is as follows:-Human genomic DNA 5 ng-500 ng-Escherichia coli genomic DNA 50 pg-100 ng-plasmid DNA 10 pg-1 ng 1. 30-35 number of cycles2. Primer concentration setting: The primer concentration can be set between 0.1 µM and 1.0 µM. A low primer concentration may result in low amplification products. Too high a primer concentration will inhibit specific amplification and may result in non-specific amplification.3. Annealing temperature setting: In general, the annealing temperature is 5℃ lower than the melting temperature of amplification primer Tm, so the annealing temperature can be lowered appropriately when the desired amplification efficiency cannot be obtained; the annealing temperature can be raised appropriately when non-specific reaction occurs. For complex templates, it is necessary to adjust the annealing temperature to achieve efficient amplification.4. Extension time setting: The extension time should be set according to the size of the amplified fragments. The following extension times are recommended: simple templates such as plasmids: 5-15 s/kb; regular genomes, cDNA templates: 10-15 s/kb; complex templates, crude templates: 20-30 s/kb; (the extension time should not be too short and should be at least 5 s/kb, but should not exceed 30 s/kb).5. Number of cycles: The number of cycles can be set according to the downstream application of the amplified product. If the number of cycles is too low, the amount of amplification will be insufficient; if the number of cycles is too high, the chance of mismatch will increase and the non-specific background will be serious. Therefore, the number of cycles should be minimized under the premise of ensuring the product yield...

There are three isozymes, EI, EII, and EIII of similar molecular weight (55 kDa± 5 kDa). Their optimum pH's are 5.5, 4.5, and 4.0 respectively. Acid phosphatase activity was observed by Teller Aladdin Library Acid phosphatase is an esterase with broad activity at an optimal pH below 7.0. There are three isozymes, EI, EII, and EIII of similar molecular weight (55 kDa± 5 kDa). Their optimum pH's are 5.5, 4.5, and 4.0 respectively. Acid phosphatase activity was observed by Teller Aladdin Library Archives in 1954 in preparations of a wheat germ lipase described by Singer JBC, 174, 11, in 1948. Equivalent commercial preparations have been distributed labeled as lipase and acid phosphatase thus generating some confusion. Subsequent work has confirmed that the non-specific esterase activity of the wheat germ preparation may be measured both as lipase (triacetin as substrate) and phosphatase. The enzyme assay is based on the work of Brandenberger and Hanson (Helv. Chim. Acta, 36, 900, 1953) and Hofstee ( Arch. Biochem. Biophys., 51, 239, 1954).Acid phosphatase (APase) non-specifically catalyzes the hydrolysis of monoesters and anhydrides of phosphoric acid to produce inorganic phosphate. It is used to study the production, transport, and recycling of phosphate and the metabolic and energy transduction processes of the cell.Characteristics of Acid Phosphatase from Wheat Germ:Molecular weight: 55,000 ± 5,000 (Verjee 1969).Composition: Three isozymes of closely similar molecular weights have been reported by Verjee (1969): EI, EII, and EIII. See also Brouillard and Ouellet (1965).Optimal pH: EI - 5.5, EII - 4.5, and EIII - 4.0. (Verjee 1969).Specificity: The enzyme has a broad esterase activity. See Joyce and Grisolia (1960). It shows highest activity for pyrophosphate.Inhibitors: Fluoride, molybdate and orthophosphate (Verjee 1969)... Read More | Inquire |
