Chemicon's Mast Cell Degranulation Assay Kit provides a simple and convenient means for assaying tryptase activity. The assay is based on spectophotometric detection of the chromophore p-nitroaniline (pNA) after cleavage from the labeled substrate tosyl-gly-pro-lys-pNA. The free pNA can then be quantified using a spectrophotometer or a microtiter plate reader at 405 nm. A pNA Standard is provided as a comparison control.
CHEMICON's NS220 Neurite Outgrowth Assay Kit (3 µm) utilizes microporous tissue culture insert technology from EMD Millipore and is based on the use of Millicell cell culture inserts (chambers) containing a permeable membrane with 3-μm pores at the base. The Millicell inserts utilized in this kit are appropriate for cells projecting neurites of up to 3 µm diameter, e.g. N1E-115 cells [Abe et al., 2003], Dorsal Root Ganglia and…

Rat mammary gland undergoes programmed cell death processes during the tissue regression that follows lactation. Apoptotic bodies, which can be seen by routine histologic staining, can be specifically stained by techniques that localize DNA strand breaks in situ. The specificity of staining for strand breaks can thus be correlated with the morphological changes that define the process of apoptosis.
APOPTAG® Plastic Coverslips are designed to be custom fitted to the specific APOPTAG® kit application.
The ApopTag® Peroxidase In Situ Oligo Ligation Kit specifically detects apoptosis by staining only cells that contain double-stranded breaks that are blunt-ended or have a one base 3' overhang (cells containing nicked, gapped, 3'-recessed, 3'-overhanging ends longer than one base and single-stranded ends are not detected). The high analytic specificity of the ApopTag® ISOL Kit minimizes background due to non-specific labeling…
