Cell Death / Health Assays
The MitoLight™ Apoptosis Detection Kit utilizes a lipophilic cation, termed as MitoLight™, as a mitochondrial activity marker. MitoLight™ is a mitochondrial dye that stains mitochondria in living cells in a membrane potential-dependent fashion. The monomer is in equilibrium with so-called J-aggregates, which are favored at higher dye concentration or higher mitochondrial membrane potential. MitoLight™ partitions differently i…
The CHEMICON In Situ FLICA Pan-Caspase Detection Kit is a fluorescent-based assay for detection of active caspases in cells undergoing apoptosis. The kit is for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures.
The CHEMICON In Situ FLICA Caspase-3/7 Detection Kit is a fluorescent-based assay for detection of active caspase-3 or caspase-7 in cells undergoing apoptosis. The kit is for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures.
The CHEMICON In Situ FLICA Caspase-3 Detection Kit is a fluorescent-based assay for detection of active caspase-3 in cells undergoing apoptosis. The kit is for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures.
CHEMICON®'s Cell Transformation Detection Assay is an anchorage-independent growth assay in soft agar, which is considered the most stringent assay for detecting malignant transformation of cells. For this assay, cells (pre-treated with carcinogens or carcinogen inhibitors) are cultured with appropriate controls in soft agar medium for 21-28 days. Following this incubation period, formed colonies can either be analyzed morphol…
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…
CHEMICON's NS225 Neurite Outgrowth Assay Kit (1 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 1 μm pores at the base. With this system, it is possible to screen numerous biological and pharmacological agents simultaneously, directly evaluate adhesion and guidance receptor functions responsibl…
