Cell Meter� Phosphatidylserine Apoptosis Assay Kit *Green Fluorescence Optimized for Flow Cytometry* Cat # 22831 Storage F/D/L (see storage codes below) Unit Size 1 kit Ex (nm) 498 Em (nm) 520 Our Cell Meter� assay kits are a set of tools for monitoring cell viability. There are a variety of parameters that can be used for monitoring cell viability. This particular kit is designed to monitor cell apoptosis through measuring the translocation of phosphatidylserine (PS). In apoptosis, PS is transferred to the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane. The appearance of phosphatidylserine on the cell surface is a universal indicator of the initial/intermediate stages of cell apoptosis and can be detected before morphological changes can be observed. Our proprietary Apopxin� PS sensor used in this kit is small molecule-based PS sensor. It has green fluorescence upon binding to membrane PS. This particular assay kit is optimized to monitor cell apoptosis using a flow cytometer at FITC channel (green fluorescence).
