Restrictions
For Research Use only
Format
Liquid
Buffer
PBS containing 0.02 % sodium azide.
Preservative
Sodium azide
Precaution of Use
WARNING: Reagents contain sodium azide. Sodium azide is very toxic if ingested or inhaled. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Wear eye or face protection when handling. If skin or eye contact occurs, wash with copious amounts of water. If ingested or inhaled, contact a physician immediately. Sodium azide yields toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide-containing compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in lead or copper plumbing.
Handling Advice
Avoid freezing and thawing repeatly.

4 °C/-20 °C
Storage Comment
Store at 4 °C for short term use.Store at -20 °C for long term preservation.
Apoptosis is related to many diseases and induced by a family of cell death receptors and their ligands.Cell death is finally caused by members of the caspase family of proteases and caspase activated DNases.A novel member in the caspase family was recently identified and designated ERICE (for Evolutionarily Related Interleukin-1 beta Converting Enzyme) and caspase-13.Caspase-13 belongs to the ICE subfamily of caspases.Overexpression of caspase-13 induces apoptosis.Caspase-13 was activated by caspase-8, which is a key enzyme in death receptor induced apoptosis.Caspase-13 is expressed in a variety of human tissues and cell lines. Synonyms: Casp-13, ERICE
