Cell viability analyses are crucial for evaluation of cell health and compound toxicity. Cell viability is measured by determining the number of living and dead cells in a total cell sample. An increase in cell viability is accompanied by cell growth, while a decrease in cell viability can indicate the toxic effects of compounds or suboptimal culture conditions. Creative Bioarray offers a wide selection of cell viability assays for drug screening and cytotoxicity tests of chemicals.

can be detected based on many different parameters: the redox potential of the cell population, the integrity of cell membranes, or the activity of cellular enzymes such as esterases. Each assay provides a different snapshot of cell health, and can individually or together form the basis of an assay for cell viability, cytotoxicity, or drug efficacy with several integrated components.

Creative Bioarray is capable of providing various options for cell viability assays and compound profiling service based on cell viability:

MTT/MST/WST-8/WST-1/CKK-8 assays
Trypan blue assays
Calcein-AM assays
Fluorescent reactive dye assays
Single/Two color viability assays
Microplate cell viability assays
