Identifies early apoptotic, necrotic and viable cells. One-step staining procedure which detects apoptosis by staining exposed phosphatidylserine (PS) which have translocated to the external cell surface. This allows detection of membrane changes that occur in early apoptotic cells. The kit is able to differentiate between:
Â
Apoptotic cells:Â Stained by Annexin V-PE but not 7-AAD
Necrotic cells:Â Stained by both Annexin V-PE and 7-AAD
Live cells: Stained by neither Annexin V-PE and 7-AAD
Â
This kit contains:
Annexin V-PE Staining solution
7-AAD Staining solution
10x binding buffer
Description
Detects apoptosis by staining phosphatidylserine molecules translocated to the outside of the cell membrane.
