This kit contains CF®488A Annexin V to stain apoptotic cells green and propidium iodide (PI) to stain necrotic cells red for fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry.

Product Description

This kit contains CF®488A Annexin V for staining apoptotic cells green, and propidium iodide (PI) for staining necrotic cells with red fluorescence, for detection by flow cytometry or fluorescence microscopy.

Features

  • Simultaneous detection of apoptotic & necrotic cells
  • 15-30 minute staining
  • Next-generation CF®488A is brighter and more photostable than FITC
  • For fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry

Kit Components

  • CF®488A Annexin V (human;recombinant, produced in E. coli)
  • Propidium Iodide
  • 5X Annexin Binding Buffer

Spectral Properties

  • CF®488A Annexin V: Ex/Em 490/515 nm
  • PI: Ex/Em 535/617 nm (with DNA)

In apoptotic cells, the phospholipid phosphatidylserine (PS) is translocated from the inner to the outer surface of the plasma membrane, which targets the dying cells for phagocytosis. The human anticoagulant, Annexin V, is a 35 kDa Ca2 -dependent phospholipid binding protein with a high affinity for PS. Annexin V labeled with CF®488A labels apoptotic cells with green fluorescence by binding to PS exposed on the outer leaflet. Our CF®488A dye is superior to fluorescein/FITC because it is not affected by pH and has far better photostability.

Propidium iodide (PI) is impermeant to live cells or early apoptotic cells, but stains necrotic cells and late apoptotic cells with red fluorescence. Both PI and CF®488A Annexin V can be excited using the 488 nm flow cytometry laser line.

CF dye technology is covered by US and international patents.

Article Snippet:Cell death assay was performed with CF488A-Annexin V (ANXA5) and propidium iodide (PI) apoptosis Kit (Biotium, 30061) as described previously. Briefly, cells grown on 10 cm dishes were treated with DMSO or 2 µM MG132 for 18 h, then harvested by digestion with 0.05% trypsin-EDTA solution.”
