Cell counting kit cck 8

Manufactured by AbMole
Sourced in United States

The Cell Counting Kit (CCK-8) is a colorimetric assay used to determine the number of viable cells in a sample. It utilizes a water-soluble tetrazolium salt that is reduced by dehydrogenase enzymes in living cells, producing a water-soluble formazan dye that can be measured spectrophotometrically.

Modulation of T Cell Proliferation by LPS-Stimulated DCs

DC-DAI-RNAi and DC-GFP were stimulated with LPS for 48 h, incubated with mitomycin C (Abmole, US) for 2 h at 37°C, and washed three times with PBS. The pretreated DCs were co-cultured with T cells from C57BL/6 mice spleen in 96-well culture plates at ratios of 1:1, 1:10, 1:20, 1:50, and 1:100 for 72 h. Untreated T cells and RPMI-1640 with 10% FBS culture medium served as negative and blank controls, respectively. Cell Counting Kit (CCK-8, Abmole, US) was added to the medium for 4 h before the end of culture, and T cell proliferation was analyzed by determining the OD450 using a microplate reader (Bio-Rad, iMark™). The stimulation index (SI) was calculated according to the following formula: stimulation index = (ODsample − ODblank control)/(ODnegative control − ODblank control). Meanwhile, MLR culture supernatants were collected from each group for concentration measurements of IL-10, IL-17, and IFN-γ using ELISA kits according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

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.
