The MTT asay is a method to assess cell viability. This assay is a semiquantitative assay. The assay is used to compare the viability changes in treated cells to untreated cells. The absorbance is indicative of the cell number. The higher the absorbance, the greater the number of viable cells present. Most researchers compare the absorbance of the two samples as a ratio (ABS treated cells/ABS untreated cells) to get a fold increase/decrease in cell number.

What is the difference between Product No. CGD1, Cell Growth Determination Kit and Product No.TOX1, In Vitro Toxicology Assay Kit?
1 answer-
Product No. CGD1 and TOX1 are both MTT based assays. The major difference between Product No. CGD1 and TOX1 is that TOX1 contains 10 % Triton X-100 in the solubilization solution for better lysis of the cells and solubilization of the MTT. If there is complete cell lysis, the results obtained with both kits would be the same. The MTT in this kit is a solution, whereas the TOX1 assay kit contains the MTT as a powder that is solubilized before use.

Can we use media with phenol red with Product CGD1, Cell Growth Determination Kit?
1 answer-
You most likely would not be able to use a medium containing phenol red with this kit. We have found that the phenol red can contribute to higher background, and therefore lower sensitivity.

Is 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) in the culture medium compatible with Product CGD1, Cell Growth Determination Kit?
1 answer-
High protein levels may form a precipitate when the MTT solubilization solution is added. Samples with protein concentrations equivalent to 10% FBS or 4 mg/mL protein seem acceptable.
