Apoptosis detection in cultured cells
The manual is not very user friendly, but the procedure is very simple. The kit is expensive, but works well.

Kit for the detection and quantification of apoptotic cell death on a single-cell level by light microscopy in immunocyto- and immunohistochemistry
Benefits
- Sensitive: The maximum intensity of labeling (cell staining) of apoptotic cells is higher than the nick translation method.
- Fast: The use of fluorescein-dUTP allows analysis of the samples directly after the TUNEL reaction, but before the addition of the secondary detection system.
- Convenient: The direct labeling procedure using fluorescein-dUTP allows verification of the efficiency of the TUNEL reaction during the assay procedure.
- Accurate: Identification of apoptosis at a molecular level (DNA-strand breaks) and identification of cells at the very early stages of apoptosis.
- Flexible: No substrate included; provides the opportunity to select the staining procedure of choice.
