Cck 8 kit

Manufactured by Dojindo Laboratories
Sourced in Japan, China, United States, Finland

The CCK-8 kit is a colorimetric assay for the determination of cell viability and cytotoxicity. It utilizes the highly water-soluble tetrazolium salt, WST-8, which is reduced by dehydrogenases in living cells to produce a colored formazan dye. The amount of the formazan dye generated is directly proportional to the number of living cells.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Antigen-specific splenocyte proliferation was evaluated by CCK-8 kits (Dojindo, Japan) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Splenocytes (5.0 × 106 cells per mL), stimulated with HBsAg (5 μg mL−1) or not, were seeded in triplicate (40 μL per well) in a 96-well plate and incubated at 37 °C in a humid atmosphere with 5% CO2. After 48 h, 20 μL of CCK-8 solution (Dojindo, Japan) was added into each well, and the plates were incubated for an additional 4 h. The cell proliferation was determined by CCK-8 kit, and the reagent of WST-8 (2-(2,4-nitrophenylmethoxy)-3-(4-nitrophenyl)-5-(2,4-disulfonic acid benzene)-2H-tetrazolium monosodium salt) could be reduced into water-soluble yellow formazan product (formazan dye) by dehydrogenase in cells under electronic carrier of 1-methoxy-5-methylphenazine dimethyl sulfate (1-methoxy PMS), which was in direct proportion to the number of living cells. Formazan product absorbed at 450 nm, and the absorbance at 450 nm (with 620 nm as reference) was measured by an Infinite M200 microplate spectrophotometer. The results were expressed as the proliferation index (PI) calculated based on the formula: PI = OD (450 nm) for stimulated cultures/OD (450 nm) for non-stimulated cultures.

Evaluating Ferroptosis Inducers and FAAH Inhibitors

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
786-O cells were seeded in 96-well plates for each cell line at 4000 cells per well, and a cell viability assay was conducted with a CCK-8 kit (Dojindo Laboratories, Japan) after combinational treatment with FAAH inhibitors and ferroptosis inducers for 72 h according to the manufacturer’s instructions. For the drug synergy assay, the synergic effect of drug pairs was defined quantitatively with the Chou–Talalay equation [46 (link)], where a combination index < 1 indicates synergism and a combination index > 1 indicates antagonism. 786-O and Caki-1 cells were treated with different concentrations of two single drugs and combinational treatment, respectively, for 72 h, and cell viability was validated with a CCK-8 kit (Dojindo Laboratories) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Briefly, mBMSCs (ATCC Inc., USA) and HUVECs (Sciencell Inc., USA) were seeded at the density of 105 per scaffold in 48-well plates for 24 h using complete medium (high glucose Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (H-DMEM) with 10% fetal bovine serum). Then, the original mediums in the plates were replaced with new mediums. The influences of the scaffolds on the proliferation of mBMSCs and HUVECs were then assessed by using CCK-8 kit (Dojindo Molecular Technologies Inc., Japan) at day 1, 3, and 5. The cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8 kit (Dojindo Molecular Technologies Inc., Japan) after seeding cells onto the scaffold for 1, 3, and 5 d.

Proliferation of HCC4006 and NCI-H1703 cells after transfections were detected using CCK-8 kits (Dojindo, Japan) [18 (link)]. After washed with PBS, 5000 cells were transferred to each well of a 96-well plate and cultured at 37°C. Cell numbers were reflected by measuring OD values of medium at 450 nm at 2 h after the addition of 10% CCK-8. Measurements were performed every 24 h for a total of 96 h.

CCK-8 kits (CK04, Dojindo, Kumamoto, Japan) were utilized for evaluating the proliferative potential of MUM-2B and MUM-2B/CDDP cells. MUM-2B and MUM-2B/CDDP cells in the logarithmic growth phase were seeded in a 96-well plate (1 × 104 cells per well) and cultured for 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 days. During this period, 10 μL CCK-8 reagent was loaded at the same time every day, and incubation was made at 37 °C for 3 h. The OD value of each well at 450 nm was measured using a microplate reader. The values were proportional to the number of proliferated cells in the medium, and the cell growth curve was plotted.
MUM-2B and MUM-2B/CDDP cells in logarithmic growth phase were seeded in a 96-well plate (1 × 104 cells per well) for 24 h. After 24 h, cells were exposed to different concentrations of CDDP. After 48 h, 10 μL CCK-8 reagent was loaded for another 3 h of incubation at 37 °C. The OD value of each well at 450 nm wavelength was recorded on a Microplate reader and finally presented in the cell growth curve. IC50 refers to the concentration of cisplatin inhibiting the cell viability by 50%. A higher IC50 value indicates higher resistance to chemotherapy [26 (link)].

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.
