| Background Information | Bcl2 (B cell CLL lymphoma 2) is a proto-oncogen, which can contribute to tumorigenesis by counteracting apoptosis in various cell types. The anti-apoptotic effect of Bcl2 is performed by its interactions with suppressors and agonists of cell death and under physiological conditions it is regulated by proteolytic processing and phosphorylation. Bcl2 expression can be detected mainly in lymphoid tissues and in the basal cells of epithelial tissues. It is also a marker that can help in classification of lymphoproliferative diseases and in prognostics of some epithelial neoplasms. |
| Usage | The reagent is designed for Flow Cytometry analysis of human blood cells. Recommended usage is 10·µl reagent·/ 100·µl of whole blood or 10^6 cells in a suspension. The content of a vial (1 ml) is sufficient for 100 tests. |
| Storage Buffer | The reagent is provided in stabilizing phosphate buffered saline (PBS) solution, pH ≈7.4, containing 0.09% (w/v) sodium azide. |
| Storage | Avoid prolonged exposure to light. Store in the dark at 2-8°C. Do not freeze. |
| Stability | Do not use after expiration date stamped on vial label. |
