产品描述 | XTT is a cell-impermeable, negatively charged tetrazolium dye that produces a water-soluble formazan when reduced at the cell surface by cellular-derived NADH and an electron mediator.1,2It is frequently used in colorimetric assays to measure cell proliferation, cytotoxicity, and apoptosis.3 1.Berridge, M.V., Tan, A.S., and Herst, P.M.Tetrazolium dyes as tools in cell biology: New insights into their cellular reductionBiotechnol.
