Product Overview :
Cell Cytotoxicity Assay Kit (Fluorometric) is a non-radioactive and no-wash method assay suitable for high throughput screening of cell proliferation or cytotoxicity against a variety of compounds.
Description :
The measurement of mitochondrial dehydrogenases (e.g. LDH) activity is a well-accepted assay to quantify cell numbers and monitor cell viability. Our Cell Cytotoxicity Assay Kit (Fluorometric) provides a fast, simple, accurate and homogeneous assay for the colorimetric or fluorimetric detection of viable cells. This assay is based on the observation that oxidized non-fluorescent blue resazurin is reduced to a red fluorescent dye (resorufin) by accepting an electron from mitochondrial respiratory chain in live cells. The amount of resorufin produced is directly proportional to the number of living cells.
Applications :
This Cell Cytotoxicity Assay Kit (Fluorometric) is more sensitive for cell proliferation and cytotoxicity than other assays such as MTT.
Storage :
Keep in freezer and protect from light.
