The Muse® MultiCaspase kit - 100 Tests allows for the simple, rapid, and quantitative measurements of two important cell health parameters simultaneously: caspase activation and cellular plasma membrane permeabilization, or cell death. The kit provides the relative percentages of cells that are live, exhibiting caspase activity, and dead in both adherent cells and cells in suspension. Minimal sample preparation is required in this no-wash, mix-and-read kit, making it easy to obtain accurate and precise results. Data generated using the Guava® Muse® cell analyzer provides statistical values, measuring the:
Percentage of live, caspase+, caspase+ and dead, total caspase+, and dead cells
Cell concentrations (cells/mL) for live, caspase+, caspase+, and dead cells
The Muse MultiCaspase kit was developed and optimized for use with the Muse system, which makes sophisticated, fluorescent-based analysis fast, easy, convenient, and affordable. Sample preparation is minimal, and after loading samples onto the Muse cell analyzer, intuitive software provides detailed or summary analysis of your cell sample in a few short steps.
