474004 Basic Cytotoxicity Test BioAssay™ Kit
Applications
FCShipping Temp
Blue IceStorage Temp
4°C/-20°C
Sample Type:
Cell culture
Reagent Name:
7-AAD, CFSE
Target:
Cell-mediated cytotoxicity
Excitation/Emission:
7-AAD–546nm/647nm; CFSE–492nm/520nm
Method of Analysis:
Flow cytometry
Intended Use:
Basic Cytotoxicity Test Assay is a single-tube, dual-color assay for determining cytotoxicity by flow cytometry. The BioAssay™ employs a green fluorescent cellular stain, CFSE, to label target cells and the red live/dead viability dye, 7-AAD, to identify the dead cells present in the cytotoxicity BioAssay™ samples. Analyze your results using a flow cytometer.
Test Principle:
Cytolytic activity is an important process for eliminating intracellular pathogens and cancer cells. Basic Cytotoxicity Assay allows you to assess cytolytic activity in cell culture.
The Basic Cytotoxicity BioAssay™ includes two fluorescent reagents: CFSE and 7-AAD. CFSE, a green fluorescing cellular stain, is utilized to identify the target cell population. The unstained effector cells are added and incubated with the target cells. 7-AAD, a red fluorescing live/dead stain, is then added to stain all necrotic cells red by binding to the DNA of membrane-compromised cells. The target cell and effector cell populations can then be easily distinguished, and flow cytometry easily identifies live and necrotic cells.
