Supplier: Merck

The Glucose (HK) Assay Kit is for the quantitative, enzymatic determination of glucose in food and other material.

MTT, XTT, and resazurin are reduced by mitochondrial metabolic activity to yield coloured or fluorescent products, and thus are useful for and assaying cell viability and quantitating cell number. MTT and XTT are reduced to coloured formazin salts that can be measured by absorbance. MTT generates an insoluble formazin salt, requiring cell lysis before the absorbance can be measured, while XTT does not require cell lysis for measurement. Resazurin is a non-fluorescent blue dye that is reduced to the pink fluorescent compound resorufin, which can be measured by fluorescence or absorbance.

This kit is designed to directly monitor real time reactive oxygen and/or nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) production in live cells using fluorescence microscopy and/or flow cytometry.

Supplier: Biotium

This NucView™488 and RedDot™2 Apoptosis and Necrosis Assay Kit contains NucView™488 caspase-3 substrate for detection of caspase-3/7 activity. The far-red dead-cell stain RedDot™2 is included for staining necrotic and late apoptotic cells that have compromised plasma membrane integrity. This kit provides a convenient tool for profiling apoptotic and necrotic cell populations by fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry.

Supplier: Biotium

CellBrite kits are designed to label cell cytoplasmic membranes with a fluorescent membrane dye pre-dissolved as an optimised staining solution. By combining CellBrite membrane stains, it is possible to label multiple cell populations with distinctive colours, a capability useful for the studies of cell-cell interactions.

HIGHDEF® black IHC chromogen (HRP) is intended to be used in conjunction with horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-based immunostaining or in situ hybridisation systems.

Supplier: Enzo Life Sciences

The DPPIV/CD26 Assay kit for biological samples is a complete assay system designed to measure DPPIV activity in biological fluids such as plasma, serum, urine, and saliva. Uses for the kit include correlation of DPPIV activity with disease states or determination of the efficacy of DPPIV inhibitors administered in vivo.

Supplier: G-Biosciences

Apoptosis inducers are used for induction of apoptosis in cultured cells. The selection of apoptosis inducers include actinomycin D, camptothecin, cycloheximide, dexamethasone, doxorubicin and etoposide.

HIF-1α Transcription Factor Assay Kit is a sensitive, non radioactive method for detecting HIF-1α from whole cell lysates.

Supplier: Enzo Life Sciences

Based on the dye cresyl violet and the caspase 3/7 DEVD peptide recognition sequence, this kit allows the detection of caspases 3 and 7 in living cells by fluorescence microscopy.

Supplier: Enzo Life Sciences

This kit provides a rapid assay for nuclear condensation, a prominent hallmark of apoptosis.A highly permeable green-emitting dye for enhanced detection of apoptosis-induced chromatin condensation.

Supplier: Enzo Life Sciences

CYTO-ID can monitor autophagy in live cells and autophagic flux in lysosomally inhibited live cells using a novel dye that selectively labels accumulated autophagic vacuoles.

Supplier: Abcam

Exosome Isolation and Analysis Kit - Flow Cytometry, Urine (ab267480) is a simple immunobead assay for isolation/detection of pre-enriched CD63+ human exosomes from biofluids (plasma, urine) or cell culture media.

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.

Supplier: Cayman Chemical

A 96-well assay for measurement of PPARδ DNA binding activity.

Supplier: Biotium

CF® dye labeled dextrans could be used as a fluorescent fluid-phase markers to study cell permeability, endocytosis, or mechanisms of biomolecular delivery. The dextran is 3,500 MW, and contains a formaldehyde-fixable free-amine group.
