Soluble Epoxide Hydrolase Cell-Based Assay Kit Reference: 600090-480 Mammalian sEH is a member of the α/β-hydrolase fold family of enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of exogenous and endogenous epoxides to vicinal diols. Endogenous substrates for sEH include EETs which exhibit vasodilatory and anti-inflammatory activity. Cayman’s sEH Cell-Based Assay provides a convenient 96-well plate, fluorescence-based method for detecting epoxide hydrolase activity in whole cells. The assay utilizes Epoxy Fluor 7, a sensitive fluorescent substrate for sEH that can be used to monitor the activity of both human and murine enzymes.
7-AAD/CFSE Cell-Mediated Cytotoxicity Assay Kit Reference: 600120-1 Cayman’s 7-AAD/CFSE Cell-Mediated Cytotoxicity Assay Kit employs CFSE to label target cells within the mixed cell population and 7-AAD to label dead cells. This kit provides an improvement over the traditional 51chromium (51Cr) release assay to assess cell-mediated cytotoxicity. CFSE labeling is more sensitive, does not employ radioisotopes, and cytolysis can be assessed at the single-cell level. The mixed lymphocyte reaction is a cornerstone method of immunology(17323), and this kit can help immunologists to detect subtle changes in cytotoxic lymphocyte function. The kit provides sufficient reagents to effectively stain approximately 109 cells.
SPE Cartridges (Phenyl) Reference: 400048-25 Phenyl cartridges recommended for use with Angiotensin II EIA Kit.
Autophagy/Cytotoxicity Dual Staining Kit Reference: 600140-1 Cayman’s Autophagy/Cytotoxicity Dual Staining provides a convenient tool for studying the regulation of autophagy and cytotoxicity at the cellular level. The kit employs MDC, an autofluorescent substance incorporated into multilamellar bodies by both an ion trapping mechanism and the interaction with membrane lipids, as a probe for detection of autophagic vacuoles in cultured cells. Propidium iodide is used as a marker of cell death.
