For MTT assay, 5×103 early log phase of control or AMPH-1 knockdown cells were seeded in 96-well plates for the MTT assay. Cell density was measured by Cell Viability Kit (MTT, Roche, Indianapolis, IN, USA) following the manufacturer's instructions. The absorbance value (OD) was read in a microtiter plate reader at wavelength of 570 nm. All experiments were repeated at least three times.
For colony formation assay, cells were seeded into 96 well dishes with density of 5×104 cells per well. Individual colonies were fixed and stained with a solution containing 0.2% crystal violet in 10% ethanol for 30 minutes. The amount of dye taken up by the monolayer is quantitated in a spectrophotometer or plate reader at 570 nm.

Cell Growth Analysis and Colony Formation
Colony formation assays were performed to assess the ability of a single cell to grow into a colony. Cells were plated at a low density (500-1000 cells/well) onto 6 well plates and observed for 2 weeks. Colonies were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde, stained with 0.5% crystal violet staining solution and washed with PBS.

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.
