Canvax Senescence Detection Kit (SA-SS-gal Staining) CA090

Senescence Detection Kit (SA-ß-gal Staining), for a fast, convenient & easy activity measure of sa-b-gal in cells cultures

Senescence Detection Kit is a Fast, Convenient &amp, Easy-to-use kit that measures activity of SA-B-Gal in cells cultures by hydrolysis of X-gal, which results in the accumulation of a distinctive blue color in senescent cells. Senescence cells display a phenotype like increase of cell size, distinctive flat morphology, changes in gene expression and activity of senescence-associate ß-galactosidase (SA-ß-gal). It represents tumor suppressor mechanism for this reason cellular senescence has become an increasingly target in the development of novel therapeutics.

Main Features:

Fast, convenient and easy procedure: takes 28 minutes to results with minimal handling steps. The specific histochemical marker is only present in senescent cells and is not found in pre-senescent, quiescent or immortal cells Risk-free: product covered by Canvax Quality 100% Guarantee.
