I have a client who has been using 7AAD to measure apoptosis.  She now 
thinks that she really needs to be measuring the difference between caspace 
dependent vs caspace independent apoptosis.  She asked me if 7AAD was 
accomplishing this.
	 After reading about 7AAD in molecular probes catalog, it is my 
opinion that it is not.
	 I am looking for support (or not) that my interpretation of 7AAD 
is correct (or not).  I am also looking for suggestions of other products 
that she may use to accomplish her goal; to measure caspace independent vs 
caspase dependent apoptosis.
	 Thanks in advance,
	 Joan K
