Celltiter 96 aqueous non radioactive cell proliferation assay mts assay

Manufactured by Promega
Sourced in United States

The CellTiter 96 AQueous Non-Radioactive Cell Proliferation Assay (MTS assay) is a colorimetric method for determining the number of viable cells in proliferation or cytotoxicity assays. The assay measures the bioreduction of a tetrazolium compound (MTS) into a colored formazan product by viable cells. The amount of formazan produced is directly proportional to the number of living cells in culture.

The cells were seeded in 96-well plates. After overnight culture, the cells were treated with 0, 25, 50, 100, 200, and 400 μg/mL of PM2.5 or 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 mM of glucose for 24 h. The cytotoxicity of PM2.5 or glucose in MH-S cells was determined by two different methods: CellTiter 96 AQueous Non-Radioactive Cell Proliferation Assay (MTS assay) (Promega, Madison, WI, USA) and alamarBlue™ assay (Invitrogen, Eugene, OR, USA) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. To observe whether there was cytotoxicity with PM2.5 treatment in a high glucose environment, the cells were pretreated with 30 mM glucose for 18 days followed by 25 or 50 μg/mL of PM2.5 treatment for another 24 h. Mannitol was used as an osmolality control.

The cytotoxicity of Nano-CuO and Nano-TiO2 in BEAS-2B cells were determined by both CellTiter 96® AQueous Non-Radioactive Cell Proliferation Assay (MTS assay) (Promega, Madison, WI) and alamarBlue™ Cell Viability Reagent (alamarBlue assay) (Invitrogen, Eugene, OR) as described in our previous studies (Mo et al. 2009 (link); Yu et al. 2010 (link)). Briefly, 3x103 BEAS-2B cells per well were seeded in 96-well plates. After 12 h incubation, cells were treated with different doses of Nano-CuO or Nano-TiO2 (0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, and 5.0 μg/mL) in a total volume of 200 μL per well. Cells without treatment were used as control. After 24 h treatment, the cytotoxicity was determined by recording the colorimetric absorbance at 490 nm for MTS assay and fluorescence at ex530/em590 for alamarBlue assay. The cell viability was presented as the percentage as compared to the control.

Cell cytotoxicity was assessed through CellTiter 96® Aqueous Non-Radioactive Cell Proliferation Assay (MTS Assay) (Promega, USA) as per manufacturer's instructions [33 ]. Cell numbers were adjusted after cell counts (MCF-7: 8.0x103 cells/well; HT-29: 1.0x104 cells/well; HCT-116: 2.0x104 cells/well; MDA-MB-231 and Reh: 2.5x104 cells/well) using their respective complete medium without phenol red. 90μL of cell solutions were inoculated into a 96-well plate and incubated overnight. After incubation, 10μL of different concentrations of various extracts and fractions were introduced into respective well. 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) (donated by Penang General Hospital, Malaysia) was used as reference drug for comparison. After 48 hours, 20μL of MTS reagents was added into each well followed by incubation for another 2-5 hours (HT-29: 2 hours; HCT-116: 3 hours; MCF-7, MDA-MB-231, and Reh: 5 hours). The absorbance value for each well was measured at 490nm and 630nm (reference wavelength) using a microplate reader. The percentage of inhibition for each extract and fraction was calculated as follows: Percentageofinhibition%=AnAsAn×100% whereby
An = absorbance of negative control
As = absorbance of test samples (extracts, fractions, or 5-FU)

Each concentration and time point was tested in quadruplet and all experiments in triplicates. Means and standard deviations were calculated from quadruple optical density (OD) measurements. Viability of treated cells was compared to that of untreated cells and drug concentrations which inhibited cell growth by 50% were calculated as described previously [42 (link)].

Biphasic scaffolds containing 0-60 wt% nHA were studied in an effort to optimize nHA concentration. All 3D printed scaffolds were sterilized in 70% ethanol for 30 min then washed 3 times in PBS before cell seeding. hMSCs were seeded at a density of 50,000 cells/scaffold. Seeded scaffolds were then incubated under standard cell culture conditions for 4 hours. After rinsing with PBS, the adherent cells were lifted enzymatically with 0.25% Trypsin-EDTA (Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) and quantified via a CellTiter 96® AQueous Non-Radioactive Cell Proliferation Assay (MTS assay, Promega, Madison, WI) and analyzed at 490 nm. Similarly, hMSC proliferation was examined on biphasic scaffolds with nHA concentrations of 0, 40, and 60 wt% of PEG-DA. hMSCs were seeded at a density of 10,000 cells/scaffold and incubated for 1, 3, and 5 days under standard cell culture conditions. After rinsing with PBS, the adherent cells were quantified as previously described.

3T3 mouse fibroblasts and HEK293 cells were cultured as previously described [13 (link)]. The cells were seeded in a 96-well plate at a density of 5,000 cells per well. The plates were incubated at 37 °C under a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2 for 24 h. Meanwhile, lyophilised MM80 was ground in DMEM using mortar and pestle to obtain a suspension with the desired concentration. The cell culture medium was replaced with 100 μL of the suspension. After 5 h incubation at 37 °C, the suspension in each well was replaced with the fresh cell culture medium. The CellTiter 96 Aqueous Non-radioactive Cell Proliferation Assay (MTS assay; Promega Corp., Madison, WI, USA) was performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions, either immediately or after 24 h of post-treatment incubation to determine the cell viability (%) in each well.

HEK293 cells and 3T3 mouse fibroblasts were cultured as previously described.23 24 hours before the experiment, the cells were seeded in 96-well plates at a density of 5000 cells per well. The plates were put under a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2 at 37 °C. An appropriate amount of CS, GE, or lyophilized gels (including G100, G050 and G000) was ground in the fresh cell culture medium using mortar and pestle to obtain a suspension with a desired concentration. The suspension was then filtered by using a microfilter with the pore size of 0.45 μm. During the assay, the medium in each well was replaced with 100 μL of the filtrate. After 5 hour incubation at 37 °C under a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2, the medium in each well was replaced with the fresh cell culture medium. The viability of cells in each well was examined by using the CellTiter 96 Aqueous Non-Radioactive Cell Proliferation Assay (MTS assay; Promega Corp., Madison, WI), according to the manufacturer's instructions, either immediately or after 24 hours of post-treatment incubation.

The LDH assay was performed using the LDH cytotoxicity detection kit (Promega) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Metabolic activity was assessed by use of the CellTiter96 Aqueous Non-Radioactive Cell Proliferation Assay (MTS assay) (Promega) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Cells were also incubated with peptide alone. After incubation of cells with HRV and/or peptide at 33 °C, supernatant was aspirated and LDH activity was measured. Cells were resuspended in DMEM containing MTS reagent and metabolic conversion of MTS reagent was assessed after 2 h by measuring the optical density at 595 nm. Controls included untreated cells as negative control, and cells treated with Triton-X as positive control for reduction in metabolic activity.

Cells were plated in triplicate at 2,500 (DD-1), 5,000 (COSB) or 10,000 (AS5) cells per well in 100 μL of culture medium and exposed to increasing concentrations of doxorubicin (Bedford Laboratories, Bedford, OH). Cell viability was determined 72 hours later using the colorimetric Cell Titer 96® Aqueous Non-Radioactive Cell Proliferation Assay (MTS Assay; Promega, Madison, WI) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. In order to compare the percent viability between the CSF-1Rlow and the CSF-1Rhigh populations and reduce artifacts due to potential differences in metabolic properties between cell populations, standard curves were generated for each CSF-1R population in each cell line, and the cell viability was determined based upon the total cell number from the standard curve. A separate standard curve for the CSF-1Rlow and the CSF-1Rhigh populations was generated for each experiment.

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.
