Product Information

A distinctive feature of apoptosis is degradation of DNA. The DNA fragments tend to be vary in length in integer multiples of 180 bp-200 bp, which is shown as a ladder-like pattern in agarose gel electrophoresis. This kit uses the TUNEL method, using Terminal Deoxynucleotidyl Transferase (TdT) to catalyze the incorporation of CL488-dUTP at the 3'-OH end of the broken DNA of apoptotic cells. CL488-dUTP-labeled DNA can be directly observed with a fluorescence microscope or quantified with a flow cytometer. The TUNEL method can selectively detect apoptotic cells, but not necrotic cells or cells with DNA strand breaks caused by irradiation and drug treatment.

Note: Due to the upgrade and optimization of some TUNEL series products, the original component "TUNEL Equilibration Buffer" has been removed from some products, which will not affect the effect of the assay, and the step of incubation with equilibration solution can be directly omitted from the TUNEL reaction procedure.
