KIF	QIAGEN:SI03019793 (Hs_KIF11_8)
PLK	QIAGEN:SI02223837 (Hs_PLK1_6)
VHP	QIAGEN:1027273 (Very High Potency Hs_CDC2 siRNA)
HP	QIAGEN:1027274 (High Potency Hs_CDC2 siRNA)

Neg	QIAGEN:1027310 (Negative Control)

ACD is a cocktail of four siRNA sequences and has the strongest effect to cause apoptosis. The target of three siRNAs, VHP, HP, and MP, is common (the CDC2 gene), but they differ in strength. Neg is the non-targeting siRNA, which does not degrade any RNA in the cell.
