Anybody seen the brief report in "New Scientist", 7\10\95 by one
Jane Itzhaki which refers to Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci., v92, 9363 and
tells about a simple staining test fot senescent mammalian cells?
Apparently it detects a modified form of B-galactosidase. Seems
to me it would be fantastic as a tool in researching tissue culture
senescence.
Does anybody know if a kit\reagents are commercially available yet?
