Invitrogen™ XTT (2,3-Bis-(2-Methoxy-4-Nitro-5-Sulfophenyl)-2H-Tetrazolium-5-Carboxanilide)

Description
XTT is used to assess cell viability as a function of redox potential. Actively respiring cells convert the water-soluble XTT to a water-soluble, orange colored formazan product. Unlike MTT, XTT does not require solubilization prior to quantitation, thereby reducing the assay time in many viability assay protocols.
- Compatible Cells: Eukaryotic Cells
- Platform: Microplate Reader
- Detection Method: Fluorescent
- Format: 96-well plate
- Sensitivity of XTT reduction assay is reported to be similar to or better than that of the MTT reduction assay
