Description:

Description: Activation of caspases plays a central role in apoptosis. The CaspGLOW™ Fluorescein Active Caspase-2 Staining Kit provides a convenient means for sensitive detection of activated caspase-2 in living cells. The assay utilizes the caspase-2 inhibitor, VDVAD-FMK, conjugated to FITC (FITC-VDVAD-FMK) as a marker. FITC-VDVAD-FMK is cell permeable, nontoxic, and irreversibly binds to activated caspase-2 in apoptotic cells. Summary: - Detection method- Fluorescence microscopy, Flow cytometry and fluorescence plate reader (Ex. = 485 nm and Em. = 535 nm)- Sample type- Live cells- Species reactivity- Mammalian- Kit size- Convenient sizes (25 and 100 assays)- Applications- Sensitive detection of activated caspase-2 in living cells. Kit components: - FITC-VDVAD-FMK- Wash Buffer- Z-VAD-FMKFeatures and Benefits: - Simple one-step procedure; takes only 1-2 hours- Fast and convenient- The FITC label allows for direct detection of the activated caspases in apoptotic cellsShipping Conditions: Gel pack
