Product overview
Apoptosis/ Necrosis Detection Kit (blue, green, red) (ab176749) is designed to simultaneously monitor apoptotic, necrotic and healthy cells.
The PS sensor used in this kit has green fluorescence (Ex/Em = 490/525 nm) upon binding to membrane PS.
Necrosis has been characterized as passive, accidental cell death resulting from environmental perturbations with uncontrolled release of inflammatory cellular contents.
Loss of plasma membrane integrity, as demonstrated by the ability of a membrane-impermeable 7-AAD (Ex/Em = 546/647 nm) to label the nucleus, represents a straightforward approach to demonstrate late stage apoptosis and necrosis.
In addition, this kit also provides a live cell cytoplasm labeling dye, CytoCalcein Violet 450 (Ex/Em = 405/450 nm), for labeling living cell cytoplasm.
This kit is optimized to simultaneously detect cell apoptosis (green), necrosis (green and/or red) and healthy cells (blue) with a flow cytometer or fluorescence microscope.
This product was previously called Apoptosis/ Necrosis Detection Kit.

Jurkat cells analyzed with Apoptosis/Necrosis Detection Kit (ab176749)
Fluorescent analysis showing cells that are live (blue, stained by CytoCalcein Violet 450), apoptotic (green, Apopxin Green Indicator), and necrotic (red, indicated by 7-AAD staining) in Jurkat cells induced by 1μM staurosporine for 3 hours. The fluorescence images of the cells were taken with a fluorescent microscope through the Violet, FITC and TRITC channel respectively. Individual images taken from each channel from the same cell population were merged as shown.

Flow cytometric analysis of Jurkat cellsJurkat cells were treated without (Blue) or with 1 μM staurosporine (Red) in a 37 oC, 5% CO2 incubator for 5 hours, and then
loaded with Apopxin Green Indicator for 30 minutes. The fluorescence intensity of Apopxin Green Indicator was measured with a
flow cytometer using FL1 channel.
