Cytotoxicity assays are essential tools in biomedical research and drug development. They provide valuable insights into the treatment effect and the potential toxicity of various substances, including plant extracts, herbal remedies, pharmaceutical products, and chemical contaminants. By studying the response of cultured cells to these substances, researchers can assess their safety and efficacy.
Key Features of Cytotoxicity Assays:
Non-invasive: These assays do not require direct contact with animals or humans.
Relatively quick: They can provide results in a shorter timeframe compared to in vivo studies.
KUVACB now offers in vitro assay services for testing compounds in canine mammary cancer cell lines developed at our cell bank. Available assays are:
Proliferation Assays:
MTT assay: Measures the metabolic activity of cells, which is indicative of cell viability.
Migration and Invasion Assays:
Wound healing assay: Assesses the ability of cells to migrate and close a wound-like gap
These assays provide quantitative and qualitative data on the effects of test substances on cell viability, proliferation, migration, and invasion.
Cytotoxicity assays are indispensable tools for evaluating the safety and efficacy of various substances. By understanding the different methods used in these assays, researchers can make informed decisions about the potential risks and benefits of these substances.
