Xtt substrate

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific

The XTT substrate is a colorimetric reagent used in cell-based assays to measure cell viability, proliferation, and cytotoxicity. It is a tetrazolium-based compound that is reduced by metabolically active cells, producing a colored formazan product that can be measured spectrophotometrically.

XTT Cell Viability Assay for Reversine

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
XTT cell viability assays were performed by first seeding 4000 LM2-4 cells into a 96-well tissue culture plate. After cells attached overnight the indicated concentrations of Reversine (Selleckchem) or vehicle (DMSO) were then added to the wells in 100 μL phenol-free complete DMEM medium. After 48 h, XTT substrate (Thermo Fisher Scientific) was added to the wells and incubated for 2 h before reading the A450 nm on a plate reader.

XTT Assay for Cell Viability

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
XTT cell viability assays were performed by first seeding cells into a 96-well tissue culture plate at the following density per well: LM2-4 (4,000), BT549 (2,000), HCC38 (4,000), or MDA-MB-436 (7,500). After cells attached overnight the indicated concentrations of Olaparib (Lynparza) (Selleckchem, Houston, TX, USA) or vehicle alone (DMSO) were then added to the wells in 100 μL phenol-free complete DMEM medium. After 48 h, XTT substrate (Thermo Fisher Scientific) was added to the wells and incubated for 2 h before reading the A450 nm on a plate reader. Cell viability for each of the indicated treatments was expressed as a percent of the vehicle control wells.

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.
