Cell counting kit 8 cck 8 assay kit

Manufactured by Dojindo Laboratories
Sourced in Japan, United States, China

The Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay kit is a colorimetric assay for the determination of cell viability and cytotoxicity. The kit uses a water-soluble tetrazolium salt that is reduced by dehydrogenase activities in living cells, producing a colored formazan dye that can be measured spectrophotometrically.

Evaluating Cell Viability with CCK-8 Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The cell viability was examined using Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay kits (Dojindo Molecular Technologies, Shanghai, China) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Cells were seeded in 96-cell plates at 1 × 104 cells per well in 100 μL of standard culture medium and incubated overnight. After cells were treated with H2O2 at indicated concentrations, 10 μL of CCK-8 reagent was added to each well and incubated in a tissue culture incubator at 37 °C for 1 h. The absorbance at 450 nm was determined, using a Bio-Tek800 microplate reader (BioTek Instruments, Winooski, VT, USA). Three wells of cells were used for each condition for every independent experiment. The cell viability in H2O2-treated cells was presented as a percentage of that in control or untreated cells in parallel experiments.

Cell viability was determined using Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay kits (Dojindo Molecular Technologies, Inc., Rockville, MD) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. THP-1 cells were seeded at 20,000 cells per well in 96-well plates and differentiated in 200 nM PMA for 72 hr and allowed to rest for 48 hr prior to treatment. [36 ,37 ] Cells were exposed to fresh-prepared cdPM (33 μg/mL) and incubated for 24 hr. The media containing particles were removed, and the cells were incubated in 100 μL of a medium solution containing 10% (v/v) CCK-8 reagent. The cells were incubated at 37°C for a further 3 hr. The absorbance was obtained by scanning with a SpectraMax M2 microplate reader (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale, CA) at 450 nm. Each experiment was performed at least three times in triplicate. The cells treated with 10% DMSO served as a positive control group, and cells treated with the 15% (volume based) DI water in media served as the negative control. Cell viability was calculated according to the following formula: cell proliferation (%) = absorbance of the experimental group/absorbance of the negative control group ×100. The results were confirmed by visual inspection.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
