Visualization of an Apoptotic Rat Cardiac Myocyte using the CardioTACS In situ Detection Kit
Rat heart tissue was fixed in 4% formaldehyde overnight and paraffin-embedded. Five micron sections were prepared and placed onto glass microscope slides. Samples were processed following the CardioTACS Kit protocol (Catalog # 4827-30-K) and visualized by light microscopy. Photo was provided courtesy of Dr. J. Zhang, FDA.
DermaTACS® in situ
Complete kits contain TACS BlueLabel, Red Counterstain C, and reagents necessary for generating positive controls. Kits are optimized for detection of apoptosis in skin tissues.

Apoptotic Cells within a Mouse Mammary Tumor Identified using the Tumor TACS Kit
Mammary tumor was fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde overnight and paraffin-embedded. Five micron sections were prepared and placed onto glass microscope slides. The sample was processed following the TumorTACS Kit protocol (Catalog # 4815-30-K). Brown stained nuclei indicated apoptotic cells.
VasoTACS® in situ
Complete kits contain TACS BlueLabel, Red Counterstain C, and reagents necessary for generating positive controls. Kits are optimized for detection of apoptosis in vascular tissues.

| Testing Format: | Light Microscopy |
| Sample Type: | Fixed cells, Embedded tissues, Frozen tissues |
| Size: | 30 Tests (Catalog # 4826-30-K) |
Visualization of Apoptotic Cells in Vascular Tissue
TIssue from the small artery of rat was formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded following the initiation of drug-induced apoptosis. The tissue was processed according to the protocol in the VasoTACS Kit (Catalog # 4826-30-K) and visualized by light microscopy. Brown stained nuclei following counterstaining with Red Counterstain C indicated apoptotic cells. Data was provided courtesy of Dr. Jun Zhang, FDA.
