Cck 8 assay

Manufactured by 7Sea Biotech
Sourced in China

The CCK-8 assay is a colorimetric cell proliferation and cytotoxicity assay. It measures the activity of cellular dehydrogenases, which reflect the number of viable cells in a sample. The assay is based on the reduction of a tetrazolium salt, WST-8, to a water-soluble formazan dye by cellular dehydrogenases. The resulting color change is proportional to the number of living cells and can be measured using a spectrophotometer.

Cytotoxicity Assessment of RTHF

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The effect of RTHF on A549 cell growth was examined using CCK-8 assay (7 Sea Biotech) following the manufacturer’s protocol. After differential exposure for 48 hours, 10 µL of WST-8 was added to each well and allowed to incubate for 4 hours at 37°C. Finally, the absorbance reading of each well was detected with microplate reader at 450 nm (Sigma 1-15K; Thermo Fisher Scientific). Decrease in the absorbance indicates increased cytotoxicity. The percentage of viable cells was estimated by comparison with untreated control cells.

Cell Proliferation Modulation by PKCζ Inhibitor

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell proliferation was evaluated by CCK-8 assay (7Sea Biotech) according to the instructions provided by the manufacturer. Briefly, the cells were seeded in a 96-well plate at a density of 4.0×103 cells/well and incubated at 37°C for 24 h. The cells were then treated with or without PKCζ-specific pseudosubstrate inhibitor (10 µM; Invitrogen), After 3 h, the inhibitor mixture was removed and replaced with fresh medium alone or with TNFα (rhTNFα, 10 or 100 ng/ml; Shanghai Bioleaf Biotech Co., Ltd.) for 24, 48 and 72 h. At the indicated time point, the medium was removed and supplemented with the medium containing CCK-8 reagent (10 µl/well) and the cells were cultured for a further 1–1.5 h at 37°C, 5% CO2. Subsequently, the absorbance was measured at 450 nm using a Tecan Infinite M200 Pro Nano Quant micro-plate reader (Tecan).

Cell Viability Assay in 96-Well Plate

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Each well of a 96-well plate contained about 5,000 transfected cells. Cell viability was assessed using a cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay (7 Sea Biotech, Shanghai, P.R. China). Following incubation for 24, 48, and 72 h, 10 μl of CCK-8 was added to each well and incubated for 2 h. The absorbance value was determined using a multimode microplate reader (Berthold Technologies GmbH & Co.KG, Bad Wildbad, Germany) at 450 nm.

VB1 Cytotoxicity Assay in Cultured Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cells were seeded into 96-well plates (5 × 103 cells per well) and cultured at 37°C in media containing 10% FBS for 24 h. Cells were exposed to VB1 (0 µM), 0.1% DMSO, or various concentrations of VB1 (2.5, 5, 10, and 20 µM) for 24, 48, and 72 h, respectively. The cell viability (%) was determined by CCK-8 assay (7 sea biotech, China) with the manufacturer’s instructions. In detail, the reagent (10 μl) was added into each well of the 96-well assay plate containing the samples in 100 ml of culture medium and incubated for another 4 hours, after 24, 48, and 72 h individually. The absorbance at a wavelength of 450 nm was measured using a microplate absorbance reader (Eppendorf, GER). The half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values were generated using the SPSS software.

Cell Proliferation Assay with Exosomes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cell proliferation was monitored using CCK-8 assay (7-Sea Biotech, Shanghai, China) following the manufacturer's protocol. Briefly, 2 × 10 3 cells per well were allowed to grow in 96-well plates, and were treated with exosomes that were derived from Nthy-ori-3-1 and BCPAP cells under normoxic or hypoxic conditions for Days 1, 2, 3 and 4. Ten microliters of CCK-8 reagent were added to each well at 4 h before the endpoint of incubation. The optical density (OD) 450 nm values were determined by a microplate reader (NanoDrop 2000) . All experiments were repeated at least three times.

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.
