Cell Meter™ Annexin V Binding Apoptosis Assay Kit
Green Fluorescence Optimized for Flow Cytometry
Our Cell Meter™ assay kits are a set of tools for monitoring cell viability. There are a variety of parameters that can be used for monitoring cell viability. This particular kit is designed to monitor cell apoptosis through measuring the translocation of phosphatidylserine (PS). In apoptosis, PS is transferred to the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane. The appearance of phosphatidylserine on the cell surface is a universal indicator of the initial/intermediate stages of cell apoptosis and can be detected before morphological changes can be observed. This kit uses a fluorescent Annexin V that specifically binds PS. Annexin V conjugates have been demonstrated to selectively bind PS. This particular assay kit is optimized to monitor cell apoptosis using a flow cytometer with the FITC channel (green fluorescence).
The detection of binding activity of Annexin V-iFluor® 488 and phosphatidylserine in Jurkat cells. Jurkat cells were treated without (Blue) or with 20 µM camptothecin (Red) in a 37 °C, 5% CO2 incubator for 4-5 hours, and then dye loaded with Annexin V-iFluor® 488 for 30 minutes. The fluorescence intensity of Annexin V-iFluor® 488 was measured with a FACSCalibur (Becton Dickinson) flow cytometer using the FL1 channel.
