ARRALYZE Glass Nanowell Arrays feature precisely engineered nanowells in borosilicate glass, created with our patented LIDE technology. Each array contains up to 897 individual wells (0.4 × 0.4 × 0.225mm) with dimpled bottoms for optimal single-cell isolation and analysis.

The CellTox™ Green Cytotoxicity Assay measures changes in membrane integrity that occur as a result of cell death. The assay is intended to assess cytotoxicity in cell culture after experimental manipulation. The assay system uses a proprietry asymmetric cyanine dye that is excluded from viable cells but preferentially stains the DNA from dead cells. When the dye binds DNA released from cells, its fluorescence properties are s…

Kainic Acid is a selective agonist of kainite receptors. It is also a potent excitant and neurotoxin. Chemical Name: (2S,3S,4S)-Carboxy-4-(1-methylethenyl)-3-pyrrolidineacetic acid M.Wt: 213.23 Formula: C10H15NO4 Solubility: Soluble to 25nM in water Purity: >98% Storage: Store at room temperature

The CellTiter-Glo® 3D Cell Viability Assay is a homogeneous method to determine the number of viable cells in 3D cell culture based on quantitation of the ATP present, which is a marker for the presence of metabolically active cells.   This ready-to-use reagent is based on the original CellTiter-Glo® Luminescent Cell Viability Assay chemistry and eliminates the need to combine buffer with lyophilized substrate when prepa…

SYTOX™ Green Ready Flow™ Reagent is a bright, easy-to-use nucleic acid stain that helps to distinguish dead cells from live cells in flow cytometry assays. The dye can only enter cells that have lost membrane integrity and bind to DNA, acting as a counterstain when excited at 488 nm, with an emission peak of 523 nm. The reagent can be used with both mammalian and bacterial cells, and can be used in multiplex assays.FeaturesSta…

Detects apoptotic cells in situ by the indirect TUNEL method, utilizing an anti-digoxigenin antibody that's conjugated to a Fluorescein reporter molecule

The RealTime-Glo™ MT Cell Viabiilty Assay measures viability of cells in a non-lytic, real-time live-cell format, saving time, cells and reagent costs.

ViaLight® Plus BioAssay Kits are designed to provide unprecedented speed and sensitivity for cytotoxicity and cell proliferation studies. The ViaLight® Assay incorporates bioluminescent detection of cellular ATP as a measure of viability. Measurement of ATP is the most accurate, effective, and direct way of determining the number of living cells in culture. The ViaLight® Plus BioAssay is designed to deliver a high, stable lumi…

For the characterization of cell death through agarose-gel electrophoresis.PrincipleBlood or cell lysis is accomplished by incubating the sample with the special Binding/Lysis Buffer. The sample is centrifuged through a column that contains glass fiber fleece. In the Binding/Lysis Buffer, nucleic acids quickly and preferentially bind to the surface of the glass fibers. The Washing Buffer rinses away salts, proteins, and other…

Application The Cytotoxicity Detection KitPLUS (LDH) is a fast, sensitive, and simple method to quantitate cytotoxicity/cytolysis based on the measurement of LDH activity released from damaged cells using the 96-well or 384-well plate format. The kit can be used in many different in vitro cell systems when damage to the plasma membrane occurs. For example: Detection and quantification of cell-mediated cytotoxicity. Deter…

The CellTiter-Blue® Cell Viability Assay provides a homogeneous, fluorescent method for monitoring cell viability. The assay is based on the ability of living cells to convert a redox dye (resazurin) into a fluorescent end product (resorufin). Nonviable cells rapidly lose metabolic capacity and thus do not generate a fluorescent signal. The homogeneous assay procedure involves adding the single reagent directly to cells cultur…

The Guava® Caspase 3/7 and 8 Assays employ a FLICA (Fluorescent Labeled Inhibitor of Caspases) reagent that specifically identifies active caspase 3 and 7 molecules or caspase 8 molecules.
