Fluorescent Formazans and Tetrazolium Salts - Towards Fluorescent Cytotoxicity Assays.
Formazan-based colorimetric cytotoxicity assays, such as the MTT assay, are typically used to assess cell viability with only metabolically active cells reducing tetrazolium salts into the formazans, which is then quantified by absorbance. Fluorescence offers several advantages compared to colorimetric assays and would enable techniques such as flow cytometry and confocal microscopy to be used ...
متن کاملThe Chemistry of Formazans and Tetrazolium Salts
ÖZ E T Bu çalışmada tetrazolyum tuzları ve formazanların yapıları tanımlanmıştır. Ayrıca formazan-tetrazolyum sistemlerinin önemi ve kullanım alanları açıklanmıştır. Formazanların sahip oldukları conjugate p-system kaynaklanan tautomerleşme özellikleri ve geometrik izomerleri incelenmiştir. Bu bileşiklerin en yaygın kullanılan sentezleri ve yapılarının açıklanmasında önemli olan UV-visible, IR ...
متن کاملInterference of magnesium corrosion with tetrazolium-based cytotoxicity assays.
Magnesium (Mg) alloys are promising materials for the development of biodegradable implants. However, the current in vitro test procedures for cytotoxicity, cell viability and proliferation are not always suitable for this class of materials. In this paper we show that tetrazolium-salt-based assays, which are widely used in practice, are influenced by the corrosion products of Mg-based alloys. ...
متن کاملPREPARATION AND APPLICATIONS OF FLUORESCENT POLYGLUTARALDEHYDE IMMUNOMICROSPHERES
Aqueous glutaraldehyde has been polymerized under alkaline conditions in the presence of a surfactant to yield microspheres of varied diameters. Microbeads of a nominal 300 nm diameter, made fluorescent via fluoresceinisothiocyanate, were used as a carrier of rabbit anti-human red blood cell antibodies. Specific labeling of the human red blood cells as well as diagnostic use of these fluor...
متن کاملCytotoxicity of nucleus-targeting fluorescent gold nanoclusters.
Gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) with ultra small sizes and unique fluorescence properties have shown promising potential for imaging the nuclei of living cells. However, little is known regarding the potential cytotoxicity of AuNCs after they enter the cell nucleus. The aim of this study is to investigate whether and how nucleus-targeting AuNCs affect the normal functioning of cells. Highly stable, w...
