Evaluation of MTT and Trypan Blue assays for radiation-induced cell viability test in HepG2 cells
Background: Cell viability is an important factor in radiation therapy and thus is a method to quantify the effect of the therapy. Materials and Methods: The viability of human hepatoma (HepG2) cells exposed to radiation was evaluated by both the MTT and Trypan blue assays. The cells were seeded on 96 well-plates at a density of 1 x 104 cells/well, incubated overnight, and irradiated with...
متن کاملAutophagy: assays and artifacts.
Autophagy is a fundamental and phylogenetically conserved self-degradation process that is characterized by the formation of double-layered vesicles (autophagosomes) around intracellular cargo for delivery to lysosomes and proteolytic degradation. The increasing significance attached to autophagy in development and disease in higher eukaryotes has placed greater importance on the validation of ...
متن کاملIn vitro cytotoxicity assays: comparison of LDH, neutral red, MTT and protein assay in hepatoma cell lines following exposure to cadmium chloride.
The aim of this study was to compare four in vitro cytotoxicity assays and determine their ability to detect early cytotoxic events. Two hepatoma cell lines, namely HTC and HepG2 cells, were exposed to cadmium chloride (0-300 microM) for 3, 5 and 8 h. Following exposure to the toxic metal cytotoxicity was determined with the lactate dehydrogenase leakage assay (LDH), a protein assay, the neutra...
متن کاملComparison of MTT, trypan blue, and clonogenic assay, to determine the viability in human anaplastic thyroid cancer cell line
Background: Evaluation of cell viability is momentous in pharmacologic and oncological research. Cell viability evaluation determines cell sensitivity and consequently treatment outcome. Various methods are available to determine cell survival. Each of these methods evaluates different endpoints. Accordingly, determining the correlation between these methods is important. In this study, in orde...
متن کاملAssessment of bovine sperm viability by MTT reduction assay.
The MTT reduction assay depends on the ability of metabolically active cells to reduce the tetrazolium salt (3[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-y1]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) to formazan. This study was conducted to examine and validate a simple and less costly MTT test to determine bovine sperm viability and compare the efficiency of this test with a flow cytometer. Fresh ejaculates from eight bull...
