CST, 35302S, Senescence beta-Galactosidase Activity Assay Kit (Fluorescence, Flow Cytometry)

Assay Kit for studying beta-galactosidase bacteria in the research area. Protocol Available protocols: Flow Cytometry (Fixed/Permeabilized) Specificity / Sensitivity Species Reactivity: Human Background Limited capacity to replicate is a defining characteristic of most normal cells and culminates in senescence, an arrested state in which the cell remains viable (1). Senescent cells are not stimulated to divide by serum or passage in culture, and senescence invokes a specific cell cycle profile that differs from most damage-induced arrest processes or contact inhibition (2). An enlarged cell size, expression of pH-dependent β-galactosidase activity (3), and an altered pattern of gene expression (4,5) further characterize senescent cells. Alternate Names 38154; 54645; Bafilomycin A1; beta-gal fluorescent substrate; senescence; senescent
