annexin V and rbc's addendum

OK,

It seems annexins are used for other things in addition to apoptosis. 
It is also used to identify PS on the surface of activated 
platelets, and phospholipid asymmetry. The researcher here is looking 
at phospholipid asymmetry in rbc's, not apoptosis as I said 
yesterday. Several people asked if we had calcium in the system since 
we are using an ionophore, and yes she did. So with this in mind any 
words of wisdom would be much appreciated.

Happy Holiday's
