Warning
Reagents contain sodium azide which is very toxic if ingested or inhaled. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Wear eye or face protection when handling. If skin or eye contact occurs, wash with copious amounts of water. If ingested or inhaled, contact a physician immediately. Sodium azide yields toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide-containing compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in lead or copper plumbing.
Preparation and Storage
Annexin V-R-PE: Store at 2-8 degree C; protect from light
Related Product Information for anti-Aposcreen Annexin V antibody
A number of changes in cell structure occur during apoptosis. One major change is the loss of membrane phospholipid asymmetry, with translocation of phosphatidylserine (PS) from the inner leaflet of the phospholipid bilayer to the external surface.1 Annexin V (Mr 36-kDa), a member of the annexin family of calcium-dependent phospholipid binding proteins, has a high affinity for PS-containing phospholipid bilayers.2,3 When PS is exposed on the extracellular face of a cell membrane, annexin V binds with an affinity of approximately 7 nM.4 Fluorochrome conjugates of annexin V can be used to monitor changes in cell membrane phospholipid asymmetry,5-8 thereby providing a convenient tool for detection of apoptotic cells. ApoScreen Annexin V is a labeled annexin V that can be used in conjunction with propidium iodide to evaluate subpopulations of cells along the apoptotic pathway. ApoScreen detection reagents can also be used to analyze changes in membrane asymmetry in platelets5 and erythrocytes.8 Analysis can be performed on a flow cytometer equipped with a single laser using excitation at 488 nm. Alternatively, the cells can be examined with a fluorescence microscope equipped with appropriate filters.
