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 کاملA colorimetric method for the estimation of succinic dehydrogenase activity.
Many methods for the measurement of succinic dehydrogenase activity have been proposed (l-20). These have varied from measurement of the entire system of electron transport with oxygen as the final acceptor (5, 21), to the determination of succinic dehydrogenase activity itself (6, 9, 22). The assay of succinic dehydrogenase alone was made possible by the finding that phenazine methosulfate can...
متن کاملWST-1 Reduction at the RBC Plasma Membrane
Tetrazolium dyes have often been used as electron acceptors in measurements of cell proliferation rates (Berridge and Tan, 1993; Ishiyama, et al., 1993; Berridge, et al., 1996), in histochemical procedures (Zamudio, et al., 1969; May, et al., 1995b; Demehin, et al., 2001), and for assaying redox enzymes (Berridge and Tan, 1993; Mittler and Zilinskas, 1993; Debnam and Shearer, 1997; Ye, et al., ...
متن کاملSerum albumin leads to false-positive results in the XTT and the MTT assay.
Tetrazolium salts like 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) or sodium 2,3-bis-(2-methoxy-4-nitro-5-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium-5-carboxanilide (XTT) that form formazans after reduction are widely used to investigate cell viability. Besides cellular enzymes, some constituents of cell media and other substances reduce tetrazolium salts, thereby interfering with t...
متن کاملSpectrophotometric Assay for Superoxide Dismutase Based on the Reduction of Highly Water-soluble Tetrazolium Salts by Xanthine-Xanthine Oxidase.
Two novel highly water-soluble tetrazolium salts, WST-1 (4-[3-(4-iodophenyl)-2-(4-nitrophenyl)-2H-5-tetrazolio]-1,3-benzene disulfonate sodium salt) and WST-8 (4-[3-(2-methoxy-4-nitrophenyl)-2-(4-nitrophenyl)-2H-5-tetrazolio]-1,3-benzene disulfonate sodium salt) were applied to the assay of superoxide dismutase (SOD). The superoxide anion generated by xanthine/xanthine oxidase (XO) reduced WST-...
