MTT : Reagent used in the measurement of cell proliferation ≥98%

MTT is a colorimetric based assay Because it is an insoluble product, the cells need to be lysed to make the formazan salt more soluble before

mtt The reduced MTT forms insoluble formazan which accumulates both inside of and on the surface of cells Generation of formazan reflects viable cell density

mtt Cells are then detected with the proliferation reagent, which is converted in live cells from the yellow tetrazole MTT to the purple formazan form by a cellular
