The Apoptosis Detection Kit (Annexin V APC + 7-AAD) is a fluorescence-based assay designed for the in vitro discrimination of viable, early apoptotic, and late apoptotic or necrotic cells using flow cytometry.
Applications
Flow cytometry, Cell Death, Appoptosis
Recommended Dilutions
Principle of Assay
This apoptosis detection kit supports high-resolution multiparameter analysis. Annexin V APC identifies phosphatidylserine exposure associated with early apoptosis, while 7-AAD stains nonviable cells with compromised membranes. Together, the reagents enable clear discrimination of cell death stages and are compatible with advanced flow cytometry workflows.
Sample Type
Live cells in single-cell suspension, including cultured cells and freshly isolated primary cells.
Emission Maxima
660 nm, 700 nm
Purity
Storage
Store at +4°C for 1 year.

Flow cytometry analysis using Apoptosis Detection Kit (Annexin V-APC + 7-AAD). Untreated Jurkat cells are shown in the left panel, while camptothecin-treated Jurkat cells are shown in the right panel. Annexin V APC binds phosphatidylserine exposed on the outer plasma membrane during early apoptosis, and 7-AAD identifies cells with loss of membrane integrity, allowing resolution of distinct stages of cell death.
