Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The cytotoxicity of MLB in A549 or MRC-5 cells was assessed using a Cell Counting Kit (CCK-8, Cat No. 40203; Yeasen Biotech Co. Ltd., Shanghai, China). A549 or MRC-5 cells were seeded at a density of 2 × 104 cells per well in 96-well plates. After growing for 8 h under normal growth conditions, cells were rendered quiescent by incubating in a serum-free medium for 24 h, and then treated with a normal medium containing various concentrations of MLB (0–200 μM). As the negative control, MLB was added to the medium without cells. After incubation for up to 24–48 h, 10 μL of the CCK8 solution was added to each well and incubated for ~1–2 h. The optical density at 450 nm was measured using a SYNERGY microplate reader (Biotek Winooski, Vermont, USA).

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.
