Study on Anticancer Potential of Quinolinium Salts Cites Magic Red Caspase Assay

Congratulations to the ChEMTox lab at Universidad Metropolitana, directed by Dr. Beatriz Zayas, for publishing their evaluation of nitrobenzazolo [3,2-a]quinolinium salts as potential anticancer agents!

To assess apoptosis, the activation of caspases 3 & 7 in the A431 epidermoid carcinoma cells was monitored using the ImmunoChemistry Technologies Magic Red™ Caspase 3&7 Assay. Cells stained with this assay that contain activated caspases 3 & 7 will exhibit a red fluorescence that may be monitored via fluorescence detection methods. This substrate-based caspase assay does not require a wash step, permeabilization, or fixation.
