Caspase Apoptosis

Caspase Apoptosis assays monitor apoptosis by measuring the degree of the caspasecaspace (family of cysteine proteases) activity, an indicator of apoptosis.   Caspase Apoptosis apoptosis assays measure the cleavage of the DEVD-AFC (Amino Tri-fluoromethyl   Coumarin ) substrate to free AFC.   Free AFC emits yellow-green fluorescence.
