| Product Name | TUNEL Apoptosis Assay Kit |
| Catalog No. | REKI-0044 |
| Description | Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase based kit that detects apoptosis through the DNA strand breaks characteristic of late-stage programmed cell death. The TdT enzyme incorporates labeled nucleotides at free 3-hydroxyl ends of fragmented DNA, so apoptotic nuclei are tagged in situ in a 50-test format. Unlike Annexin V assays that capture early surface changes, TUNEL reports the nuclear events of later apoptosis and can be read on tissue sections as well as cell preparations. Store at -20 °C; shelf life is 24 months. |
| Intended Use | In situ detection of late apoptosis through DNA fragmentation in cells and tissue sections |
| Principle / Technology | TdT adds labeled nucleotides to exposed 3-OH DNA ends, marking fragmented nuclei of apoptotic cells |
| Specificity | 50 T; enzymatic end-labeling chemistry; 24 month shelf life |
| Reaction Conditions / Protocol | Fix and permeabilize the sample, run the TdT labeling reaction, stop and detect the incorporated label microscopically |
| Storage Conditions | -20 °C |
| Package Specifications | 50 T |
| Key Features | Late-apoptosis nuclear readout; applicable to tissue sections; long 24 month shelf life |
For research use only, not for clinical use.
