Sulforhodamine B Viability Assay for NET/NEC Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To assess tumor cell viabilities at 72 and 96 h post infection (hpi), the Sulforhodamine B (SRB) assay was employed. This viability assay measures cell density compared to mock treatment by quantifying the number of adherent (viable) cells [34 (link)]. For this purpose, NET/NEC cells were seeded in 24-well plates and infected with OV, mock treated, treated with everolimus or OV and everolimus together. At the respective time point of analysis (at 72/96 hpi), cells were fixed with 10% (v/v) trichloroacetic acid (Carl Roth, Karlsruhe, Germany) after rinsing them with 4 °C cold PBS. Fixation was allowed for at least 30 min at 4 °C. Next, cell cultures were washed with water. Then, fixed cells were stained with SRB dye (0.4% (w/v) in 1% (v/v) acetic acid; Sigma-Aldrich) for at least 10 min and rinsed afterwards with 1% (v/v) acetic acid (VWR, Radnor, PA, USA) to remove unbound SRB dye. After drying for another 24 h, 10 mM TRIS base (pH 10.5; Carl Roth) was added to solve remaining SRB dye. To measure the amount of bound SRB dye, the absorbance of the inoculum at a wavelength of 550 nm was determined in duplicates (using a Tecan Genios Plus Microplate Reader). As the SRB dye binds to cellular proteins, the absorbance correlates with cell density. In the figures, cell density of mock treated cells was adjusted as 100%; percentages refer to mock treatment.

This viability assay measures cell density compared to mock treatment by quantifying the number of adherent (viable) cells [34] . For this purpose, NET/NEC cells were seeded in 24well plates and infected with OV, mock treated, treated with everolimus or OV and everolimus together. At the respective time point of analysis (at 72/96 hpi), cells were xed with 10 % (v/v) trichloroacetic acid (Carl Roth, Karlsruhe, Germany) after rinsing them with 4 °C cold PBS. Fixation was allowed for at least 30 min at 4 °C. Next, cell cultures were washed with water. Then, xed cells were stained with SRB dye (0.4 % (w/v) in 1 % (v/v) acetic acid; Sigma-Aldrich) for at least 10 min and rinsed afterwards with 1 % (v/v) acetic acid (VWR, Radnor, PA, USA) to remove unbound SRB dye.

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.
