MTT Cell Viability & Proliferation Assay

MTT Cell Viability & Proliferation Assay

Cat. No. CTG-BK018              1 Kit (1000 tests)                    Store the kit at -15 to -25°C

Product Description

The study of cell viability and proliferation is very important for evaluating a cell population’s responses to external factors, such as growth factors, antibiotics and anti-cancer drugs. The MTT Cell Viability & Proliferation Assay allows simple, accurate and reliable counting of metabolically active cells, based on the conversion of pale yellow tetrazolim MTT [3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide] to purple formazan crystals. The crystals can be solubilized and then spectrophotometrically quantified.

Application

MTT Assay Kit provides a provides an easy-to-use, non-radioactive, and high-throughput method for measuring cell proliferation, cell viability and cytotoxicity.
