Twenty-four hours after OGD, cell viability was assessed using the tetrazolium-based CellTiter 96 AQueous One Solution Assay (Promega, Madison, WI, USA). Twenty microliters of solution were added to the culture wells. Cultures were incubated for 1 h at 37 °C followed by measurement of absorbance at λabs = 492 nm with a FLUOstar OPTIMA microplate reader (BMG Labtech GmbH, Offenburg, Germany). Results were compared with paired cultures exposed to the same neurotoxic stimulus on the same day and cell viability was expressed as the percentage of the corresponding control culture (untreated and not exposed to the lethal insult) using the following formula:
%viabilitySAMPLE=(absorbanceSAMPLE-absorbacneBACKGROUND)×100/(absorbanceCONTROL-absorbanceBACKGROUND).

Evaluating SMS-CTR Cell Proliferation and Mitochondrial Activity

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
SMS-CTR cells were seeded on 24-well plates at density of 10 000 cells per well. After 24 hours medium was changed and 24, 48 and 72 hours later cells counted in a Burker hemocytometer chamber. To examine mitochondrial activity of the cells MTT test was done. 2000 of SMS-CTR cells were seeded on 96-well plates. After 24 hours medium was changed for either a medium with 10% FBS or 0.5% BSA and cells were incubated either in normoxia (21% O2 level) or at 5% O2 level for 24 hours. Afterwards mitochondrial activity of the cells was estimated with CellTiter 96® AQueous One Solution assay (Promega), according to vendor's protocol.

Colorimetric Assay for Cellular Toxicity

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Toxicity was determined by a colorimetric assay using a commercially available kit (CellTiter 96® Aqueous One Solution Assay; Promega, Madison, WI, USA) and following the manufacturer's instructions. Adherent cells were treated with DETC (500 μm, 2 h), and H2O2 (50 μm, 30 min) separately, in the absence and presence of tempol (1 mm). Pretreatment of tempol was carried out for 10 min before adding DETC, which remained there with DETC. Cells were suspended in KH buffer and were loaded equally in a 96‐well plate. Subsequently, CellTiter96® AQeous One Solution Reagent (20 μL) was added to each well, and incubated for 2 h at 37 °C and absorbance was read at 490 nm where the resultant color was directly proportional to the number of viable cells.

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.
