NB: MTT is also available as free molecule as\u003cbr\u003e\nab146345\u003cbr\u003e\n(Thiazolyl blue tetrazolium bromide).\u003cbr\u003e\nViable cells with active metabolism convert MTT into formazan. Dead cells lose this ability and therefore show no signal. Thus color formation serves as a useful and convenient marker of only the viable cells. The measured absorbance at OD 590 nm is proportional to the number of viable cells.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe MTT assay is a measure of the metabolic activity of the cells analyzed; the more metabolic activity in the sample, the higher the signal. This should be considered when interpreting the results of the assay.\u003cbr\u003e\nMTT assay protocol summary\u003cbr\u003e\n- Replace serum-containing media with serum-free media and MTT reagent in cell cultures\u003cbr\u003e\n- Incubate for 3 hr at 37°C\u003cbr\u003e\n- Add MTT solvent and incubate for 15 min\u003cbr\u003e\n- Analyze with microplate reader\u003cbr\u003e\nRelated cell proliferation assay products\u003cbr\u003e\nMTS assay kit\u003cbr\u003e\nab197010\u003cbr\u003e\n, uses a similar principle to this kit, but without the need for the MTT solvent step.\u003cbr\u003e\nHow other researchers are using MTT Assay Kit ab211091\u003cbr\u003e\nThis MTT assay kit has been used in publications with a variety of cell types, including: HUVEC cells\u003cbr\u003e\n, U2OS cells and Saos2 cells\u003cbr\u003e\n, human PBMCs\u003cbr\u003e\n, rat primary hepatic stellate cells\u003cbr\u003e\n, DBTRG glioblastoma cells\u003cbr\u003e\n, SKOV3 human ovarian cancer cells\u003cbr\u003e\n, mouse vascular smooth muscle cells\u003cbr\u003e\n, human iPSC-derived neuronal cultures\u003cbr\u003e\n, primary bladder cancer cells\u003cbr\u003e\nReferences: 1-De Felice F et al 2019, 2-Zhang X et al 2019, 3-Schotterl S et al 2018, 4-Huang W et al 2015, 5-Tang XJ et al 2016, 6-Zhu Q et al 2017, 7-Ma S et al 2018, 8-Rane A et al 2018, 9-Maj M et al 2018\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Safety Datasheet for this product has been updated for certain countries.
