Premix wst 1 cell proliferation assay system

Manufactured by Roche

The Premix WST-1 Cell Proliferation Assay System is a colorimetric assay for the quantitative measurement of cell proliferation and viability. The assay is based on the cleavage of the tetrazolium salt WST-1 to formazan by cellular mitochondrial dehydrogenases. The amount of formazan produced is directly proportional to the number of metabolically active cells in the culture.

The cell proliferation assay was performed using the Premix WST-1 Cell Proliferation Assay System (Roche Holding AG, Basel, Switzerland) in accordance with the manufacturer's protocol. Briefly, MDA-MB-231 cells containing shNT or shGPR81 RNA were plated in 24-well plates (40,000 cells/well) and incubated at 37 °C in a 5% CO2 atmosphere. On days 1 and 2, cell proliferation reagent was added to each well and incubated for 1 h. The absorbance was measured using the Model 550 micro-plate reader described above.

Cell Proliferation Assay with WST-1 Reagent

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell proliferation assay was done using a premix WST-1 cell proliferation assay system (Roche Applied Science) following the manufacturer’s instructions. Cells were seeded on 96-well plates at a density of 2 × 103 per well in 100 μl culture medium. Cells were incubated for 1 to 4 days and subsequently exposed to 10 μl WST-1 reagent for 2 hours. The absorbance was measured at 450 nm as the detection wavelength and 670 nm as the reference wavelength for the assay.

Cell viability was tested with WST-1 reagent, Premix WST-1 Cell Proliferation Assay System (Roche, Basel, Switzerland), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Briefly, 4 × 10‍3 cells/well were seeded in a 96-well plate and treated with different drugs at various concentrations for the indicated times. After the addition of 10 μl Premix WST-1 solution to each well, cells were incubated at 37°C for another 1 ‍h, and the absorbance was determined at 440 nm using a microplate reader.

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.
