An Integrative Procedure for Apoptosis Identification and Measurement. Yingyu Cui Lab/Group: National Key Laboratory of Protein Engineering and Plant Genetic Engineering, College of Life Sciences. I have uploaded an integrative procedure through which a relatively satisfactory result can be obtained following a single stage of cell culture and transient cell treatment, then detection with different instruments. This shortens experiment time. - [Read An Integrative Procedure For Apoptosis Identification And Measurement]

Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) is a relatively new light microscopical imaging technique which has found wide applications in the biological sciences. The primary value of the CLSM to the biologist is its ability to produce optical sections through a 3-D specimen-e.g., an entire cell or a piece of tissue - that, to a good approximation, contain information from only one focal plane. Article includes principle and applications of confocal laser scanning microscope. - [Read Looking Inside Cells and Tissues by Optical Sectioning with a Confocal Laser Scanning Microscope]
Lowry Protein Assay. The Lowry procedure is one of the most venerable and widely-used protein assays, being first described in 1951 [Lowry et al., J. Biol. Chem. 193: 265-275 (1951)]. Under alkaline conditions, copper complexes with protein. When folin phenol reagent (phospho-molybdic-phosphotungstic reagent) is added, the Folin-phenol reagent binds to the protein. Bound reagent is slowly reduced and changes color from yellow to blue. P.J. Hansen, Dept. of Animal Sciences, University of Florida. - [Read Lowry Protein Assay]
