What kind of quantitative and qualitative test are the best to evaluate apoptosis, with the use of tunel fluorometric test?

10 October 2013 1 7K Report

What are the best analysis you can perform on slides with TUNEL fluorometric test? Qualitative or quantitative analysis?

Ben Woolbright

TUNEL is not a measurement of apoptosis unless you previously know the disease occurs primarily through apoptosis. Histology via SEM and activation of caspases are the gold standards in the field.
