Cell counting kit 8 cck 8

Manufactured by Transgene
Sourced in China

The Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) is a colorimetric assay used for measuring the number of viable cells in cell proliferation and cytotoxicity assays. The kit uses a water-soluble tetrazolium salt that can be reduced by dehydrogenase enzymes in viable cells, producing a colored formazan dye that can be measured spectrophotometrically.

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.
