RGC-5 cells (0.5 × 104 per well) were plated on a 96-well plate. Cell viability was measured using 3-[4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2yl]-2, 5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) and a microplate reader (Spectra MAX; Molecular Devices Corp., US) [23 (link)]. The cellular ATP level was measured using a luciferase-based assay kit (Promega Corp., US) and a microplate luminometer (GMI Inc., US) [23 (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.
