Diagnosis of drug allergy by the lymphocyte stimulation test with the MTT [3-(4,5-dimethyl thiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide] assay.
The lymphocyte stimulation test (LST) is one of the most useful laboratory tests for the identification of allergy to a specific drug. The present study was conducted to examine utility of the LST using the [3-(4,5-dimethyl thiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide] (MTT) assay as a method for diagnosing drug allergy. The basic experimental conditions for the MTT assay were determined by u...
متن کاملAn automated colorimetric (tetrazolium salt) assay for serum lactate dehydrogenase.
The adaptation of a tetrazolium salt assay for serum lactate dehydrogenase to full automation is described. The tetrazolium salt, INT, (2-p-iodophenyl-3-p-nitrophenyl5-phenyl tetrazolium chloride) serves as the chromogenic indicator of the enzyme activity. Phenazine methosulfate serves as an intermediate electron carrier. Estimation requires only 5 mm. of incubation, and assays may be run at th...
متن کاملAmoxicillin-Induced Eosinophilic Pneumonia with Granulomatous Reaction: Discrepancy between Drug-Induced Lymphocyte Stimulation Test Findings and the Provocation Drug Test
: A 59-year-old man was admitted to the hospital with pulmonary infiltration, fever, erythema, and eosinophilia. Two weeks before admission, he received amoxicillin, acetaminophen, and shoseiryu-to (a Japanese herbal medicine) for a common cold. Bronchoalveolar lavage was performed, and an increased number of eosinophils was recovered. Transbronchial biopsy specimens showed granuloma and inters...
متن کاملChemosensitivity testing of human colorectal carcinoma cell lines using a tetrazolium-based colorimetric assay.
The in vitro chemosensitivity of 11 human colorectal cell lines to seven chemotherapeutic agents was determined using a semiautomated tetrazolium-based colorimetric assay (MTT assay). Four of the cell lines were from primary tumors and seven from metastases. Eight lines were from patients with no prior chemotherapy. From assay results, we predict 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) to be the sole active agen...
متن کاملScreening of Xanthine Oxidase Producing Microorganisms Using Nitroblue Tetrazolium Based Colorimetric Assay Method
Xanthine oxidase is a highly versatile and ubiquitous complex molybdoflavoprotein, which controls the rate limiting step of purine catabolism pathway. Microbial xanthine oxidase can be used to address a number of questions presently not feasible with the eukaryotic enzymes. In the present study, a high-throughput microtitre plate-based colorimetric assay for xanthine oxidase producing microorga...
