Description

Description: Cell Meter™ assay kits are a set of tools for monitoring cell viability. A variety of parameters can be used to monitor cell viability. Cell Meter™ Colorimetric MTT Cell Proliferation Kit uses MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) to quantify the number of live cells. The water-soluble MTT produces water-insoluble purple formazan in metabolically active cells. The amount of formazan produced is directly proportional to the number of living cells. The absorbance increase is measured around 560 nm. Unlike other commercial MTT assays that require the tedious solubilization step to dissolve the water-insoluble formazan product, Cell Meter™ Colorimetric MTT Cell Proliferation Kit is a simple mix and read format with the minimal hands-one time. Our proprietary formulation eliminates the time-consuming solubilization step. It is the most robust MTT test for determining the number of viable cells in cell proliferation and cytotoxicity assays. The detection sensitivity is 10 times higher than the traditional MTT assays.
