CellProbe™ Reagents Flow Cytoenzymology Research Applications |
Opening A Vast Array Of Research Opportunities
Since enzymes are involved in every cell type and virtually every cellular function and process, the CellProbe line can be used in an extensive number of research applications. Their ability to detect small changes in enzyme activity and concentration makes these substrates a powerful adjunct to your current flow cytometry research endeavors, opening new areas of study that were previously beyond your reach. And CellProbe reagents can even be used in conjunction with your current monoclonal antibodies to measure intracellular enzymes in a particular subset via simultaneous analysis of two or more colors.

| Two peripheral whole blood samples stained with CellProbe GP•DPP IV. The histogram at left shows virtually no nucleated red cells (NRBC's). The histogram at right is from a high NRBC sample. NRBC's exhibit low DPP IV activity in comparison to leukocytes. (Courtesy of N. Kuylen, N. Garcia, Coulter Corporation). |
