Cellular assay kits allow researchers to investigate many aspects of cell health, including viability, proliferation, cytotoxicity, metabolism, apoptosis, and more. Such assays generally measure specific cellular properties such as the presence of metabolites, changes in cellular components, membrane integrity, and enzyme activity. This diverse product catalog contains assay kits from trusted suppliers; many including ready-to-use reagent sets to enable straightforward and optimized cell-based assays. Filters are provided to help simplify the product search. Flow cytometry is a common cell analysis application, as well as immunofluorescence and microscopy. Choose between fluorescence, colorimetric, or luminescent detection methods depending on the nature of the experiment. Visit the supplier page for more information, such as assay methods, protocols, included reagents, and more.
BrdU assay kits are tools used to study proliferating cells in living tissues through detection of bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU), a thymidine analog. BrdU can replace thymidine during the S phase of the cell cycle and become incorporated into newly replicated cells. Detection of BrdU via specific antibodies thus allows the researcher to observe cell proliferation and viability. BrdU can also act as a marker of cell injury. In environmental microbiology, it can be used to observe the utilization of carbon substrates for microbial growth. Visit the supplier page for more information, including assay kit components.
