MACS ART Annexin V Reagent (one vial)

Annexin V recognizes an antigen (externalized phosphatidylserine, EPS) in the plasma membrane of apoptotic cells.

Apoptotic cell depletion begins with the magnetic labeling of apoptotic cells by the MACS^® ART Annexin V Reagent. The labeled cells are then passed through a separation column located in a fixed magnetic field. Unwanted cells are selectively retained in the column. Living spermatozoa are not labeled by the reagent, so they pass through the column and are collected for later use.

The MACS ART Annexin V System components are free of human and animal-derived components. Product specifications are confirmed by batch-specific certificates of analysis and ensure consistency of quality. The MACS ART Annexin V System shows no embryo toxicity, according to the Mouse Embryo Assay (MEA).
