[Histonet] Tunel

[Henry, Charlene]

We currently use the Promega "DeadEnd Colorimetric TUNEL System" kit
with excellent results. I have also programmed it on my Ventana
Discovery instrument; so it is completely automated. We follow the
protocol included in the kit and the only reagent not included is the
DNase which we use at a 1:20 dilution for 30 minutes at 37 degrees C. We
get our "DNA POLIDNase 1" from Invitogen cat # 18162016. Instead of the
4% paraformaldehyde, we use 37% formaldehyde to make a 10% solution in
PBS. Hope this helps.
