HCT-15 In Vitro Resazurin Assay (Cell Viability) (CAT#: ITS-1122-YF6)

HCT-15

Human

HCT-15 cells were isolated from the large intestine of a male Dukes C colorectal cancer patient and can be used for cancer and toxicology research.

In Vitro Resazurin Assay (Cell Viability)

HCT-15-cell based In Vitro Resazurin Assay (Cell Viability)

Resazurin is a non-fluorescent (blue in color) component of alamar Blue reagents, which can enter viable cells. After entering in to viable cells, resazurin is converted to resorufin by NADH, NAD (P) H or FADH2-dependent cellular oxidore ductase.

Cell Viability/Cytotoxicity and Antiproliferative Assays

Uncontrolled proliferation is one of the main features of cancer cells. Cell-based in vitro assays are employed to determine whether test molecules possess direct cytotoxic/antiproliferative effects in cancer cells.
