CF® Dye Annexin V Conjugates can be used to stain the surface of apoptotic cells. The human anticoagulant Annexin V is a 35 to 36 kDa calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding protein with high affinity for phosphatidylserine (PS). In normal viable cells, PS is located on the inner leaflet of the cytoplasmic membrane. In apoptotic cells, however, PS is translocated from the inner to the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane, where it can be detected by fluorescently labeled Annexin V.
Annexin V conjugates typically are supplied as stock solutions with azide as a preservative for end-point staining assays in Annexin V binding buffer. Biotium's azide-free CF® Dye Annexin V Conjugates are supplied as lyophilized solids with no azide or other preservatives that might be incompatible with live cell imaging. After reconstitution in buffer, the conjugates can be added to cell culture medium for no-wash, real-time live cell imaging.
Biotium’s next-generation CF® dyes were designed to be highly water-soluble with advantages in brightness and photostability compared to Alexa Fluor®, DyLight®, and other fluorescent dyes.
