TdT In Situ Apoptosis Detection Kit - TACS Blue Label

The TACS 2 TdT Blue Label Kit utilizes unique cation optimization system to enhance in situ detection of apoptosis (by TUNEL) in fixed frozen, paraffin embedded, or plastic embedded cells and tissues. Enzymatic incorporation of biotinylated nucleotides in fragmented DNA is performed by a highly purified form of the TdT enzyme in a non-toxic labeling buffer (sodium cacodylate free). Biotin labeling is detected using streptavidin-horseradish peroxidase, and colorimetric substrate TACS Blue Label. Samples are counterstained with Nuclear Fast Red offering a nice contrast when visualized by light microscopy.
