ML-10 is a small molecule apoptosis probe. Due to the presence of fluorine atoms, ML-10 can be radiolabeled with 18F isotopes and can be used for apoptosis positron emission tomography imaging studies. ML-10 is selectively taken up and accumulated in apoptotic cells, while being excluded from live or necrotic cells. In addition, the uptake of ML-10 is associated with apoptotic features such as caspase activation, Annexin-V binding, and disruption of mitochondrial membrane potential.

Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
