Cellular assays have always been a powerful tool in the research lab. They are incredibly versatile, and can be designed to measure virtually any cellular or biochemical function. Sensitive detection of fluorescent probes aid in evaluating cell signalling and death pathways, which is useful for the rapid quantification of cell viability. Cellular assays can be used to measure the effects of different treatments on cell viability and to evaluate toxic effects mediated through a variety of mechanisms.
Auto-Ubiquitinylation Kit
Supplier: Enzo Life Sciences
This E3 ligase auto-ubiquitinylation kit enables proteins to be tested for ubiquitin E3 ligase activity through assessment of their ability to under auto-ubiquitinylation. Utilizing the first three steps in the ubiquitin cascade the kit facilitates ubiquitinylation of known or putative E3 ligase enzymes followed by Western blot analysis using the highly sensitive reagents provided or using antibodies to the specific protein of interest (user supplied). A high integrity ubiquitin E3 ligase enzyme is also provided for use as a positive control.

Neutrophil/Monocyte Respiratory Burst Assay Kit
Supplier: Cayman Chemical
Neutrophil/Monocyte Respiratory Burst Assay Kit provides PMA, dihydrorhodamine 123, and additional reagents necessary for inducing and quantifying a respiratory burst response in neutrophils and monocytes by flow cytometry. The assay can be performed on whole blood or on cells in various types of cell culture media. Because the assay reagents are not species-specific, this assay can be used in any species or cell type capable of producing a NADPH oxidase-dependent respiratory burst response.

TUNEL assay kits
Supplier: Biotium
TUNEL (terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) mediated dUTP nick-end labeling) is highly selective for the detection of apoptotic cells, but not necrotic cells or cells with DNA strand breaks resulting from irradiation or drug treatment. In this assay, TdT enzyme catalyses the addition of labeled dUTP to the 3’ ends of cleaved DNA fragments. Fluorescent dye-conjugated dUTP can be used for direct detection of fragmented DNA by fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry.

NF[kappa]B transcription factor assay kits
Supplier: Rockland Immunochemicals
These assays are non-radioactive methods for detecting specific transcription factor DNA binding activity in nuclear extracts and whole cell lysates. A specific dsDNA sequence containing the NF[kappa]B response element is immobilized on the bottom of the wells in a 96-well plate. The transcription factor is detected by the addition of a specific primary antibody. A colorimetric readout at 450 nm is obtained through a horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody.

Apoptosis and necrosis quantitation kits
Supplier: Biotium
Apoptosis and necrosis are two processes by which cells die. Apoptosis is an active, regulated disassembly of the cell from within. During apoptosis, phosphatidylserine is translocated from the inner to the outer surface of the cell, allowing the dying cell to be engulfed by phagocytic cells. Annexin V is a 35 kD Ca2+-dependent phospholipid binding protein with a high affinity for phosphatidylserine.
