Apoptosis, known as programmed cell death, is a carefully controlled, energy-dependent process of cell death. Induction of apoptosis results in a cascade of characteristic biochemical events resulting in changes in cellular morphology and death.
The detection of apoptosis includes methods related to cellular markers such as chromatin condensation, DNA fragmentation, mitochondrial damage, cell surface markers such as phosphatidylserine exposure and cell permeability. MCE provides a series of high-quality cell apoptosis assay kits to drive your research forward.
