Positive control slide for apoptosis - apoptosis (Jun/26/2002 )

Does anyone know of a commercially available Positive Control slide for apoptosis (perferably mouse brain), that I can use in apoptosis staining assays?

Thanks

No.  But if you happen to be near a lab that processes mouse blood on Ficoll gradients.  The PMN, or neutrophil, will die nasty apoptotic deaths after 24 hours.  They are suspension cells, easy to work with and like to be cytospun.

Please check out my thread at "Proteins without antibodies"
