Figure Lengend Snippet: Caspase-3 activities induced by biosynthesized silver nanoparticles in HCT-116 cells, quantified through FITC rabbit anti-active caspase-3 IgG antibody (BD Biosciences). Representative FS/SS dot plots ( a ) of uniform population, percentage of cells with high caspase-3 activity assessed by dUTP-FITC ( b ) for control (i), standard EGF (ii), and biosynthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) (iii). Flow cytometry histogram overlays ( c ) show the intensity of dUTP-FITC in the HCT-116 cells that are untreated (control), those treated with cisplatin (standard), and those treated with biosynthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs).
Article Snippet: The APO-DIRECT™ kit and FITC rabbit anti-active caspase-3 IgG antibody were purchased from Pharmingen (BD Biosciences).
