In Situ Cell Death Detection Kit, Fluorescein

Uses

The In Situ Cell Death Detection Kit, Fluorescein, ?is a precise, fast, and simple nonradioactive technique to detect and quantify apoptotic cell death at the single-cell level by fluorescence microscopy and quantitative detection by flow cytometry in cells and tissues. Thus, the In Situ Cell Death Detection Kit can be used in many different assay systems.
Examples are:

• Detection of individual apoptotic cells in frozen and formalin-fixed tissue sections in basic research
• Determination of sensitivity of malignant cells to drug-induced apoptosis in cancer research
• Typing of cells undergoing cell death in heterogeneous populations by double staining procedures

General Description

Kit for the detection and quantification of apoptosis at the single-cell level, based on labeling of DNA strand breaks (TUNEL technology); analysis by fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry.
