Applications of Annexin V Kit
Application Name | Verified | Min Dilution | Max Dilution |
---|---|---|---|
Flow Cytometry | Neat |
- Instructions For Use
- 1) Dilute binding buffer 1:4 in distilled water (50 ml binding buffer + 150 ml distilled water).
2) Wash cells in PBS by gentle shaking or by pipetting up and down.
3) Resuspend cells in 200 ul of pre-diluted binding buffer, adjusting to a cell density of 2-5 x 105 cells/ml.
4) Add 5 ul Annexin V:FITC to 195 ul of the cell suspension prepared in step 3.
5) Mix and incubate for 10 minutes in the dark, at room temperature.
6) Wash cells in 200 ul of pre-diluted binding buffer.
7) Resuspend cells in 190 ul pre-diluted binding buffer.
8) Add 10 ul of the Propidium Iodide solution.
9) Analyse by flow cytometry.
The flow cytometer is preferably set such that the Mean Fluorescence Intensity of the Annexin V negative population is between 1 and 10. Optimal parameter settings can be found using a positive control. For a positive control, incubate the cells with 3% formaldehyde in buffer during 30 minutes on ice. Wash away the formaldehyde and suspend the cells in cold binding buffer at 2-5 x 105 cells/ml. Proceed with step 2 as described above.
