A cell counting kit 8 cck

Manufactured by Dojindo Laboratories
Sourced in Japan

The Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) is a colorimetric assay for the determination of cell viability and cytotoxicity. It utilizes a water-soluble tetrazolium salt that is reduced by dehydrogenase activities in living cells, resulting in the formation of a water-soluble formazan dye. The amount of formazan dye generated is directly proportional to the number of living cells in the sample.

A Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay (Dojindo Laboratories, Kumamoto, Japan) was used to measure the effects of CEACAM6 inhibition on A549, HT-29, and LoVo cells. Cells (5 × 104 cells/ml) were treated with pHLIP-siCEACAM6 at doses of 0, 100, 250, or 500 nM in 96-well plates for 48 h; pHLIP-scr served as the control. All treatments were performed at the indicated pH. After 48 h, the extent of cell growth was assessed using CCK-8 assay (Dojindo). CCK-8 solution (10 μl) was added to each well, followed by incubation for 2 h at 37 °C. The absorbance at 450 nm was determined by a multiplate reader (Lambda Bio-20; Beckman Coulter, Brea, CA, USA). Cell viability was expressed as a percentage of that in control cells.

Evaluating Cardiac Fibroblast Proliferation and Migration

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) (Dojindo Molecular Technologies, Inc.) was used to assay CF proliferation. CFs transfected with the miR-144 mimic were serum-starved in serum-free media for 24 h. The media was then placed with a mixture of fresh serum-free DMEM and CCK-8 reagent. The CCK-8 assay was performed after 12 h of incubation. The optical density was determined using a microplate reader (Bio-Rad) at a wavelength of 450 nm. Cell migration ability was analyzed using the Transwell chamber assay. CFs were starved for 24 h and then the cells were placed in the upper chamber of an insert (pore size, 8 µm). After 24 h of incubation, the cells on the underside were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 20 min, and stained with 0.1% crystal violet in 20% ethanol for 10 min. Images were captured using a phase contrast microscope.

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.
