Application

In Vitro Toxicology Assay Kit, Sulforhodamine B based has been used for spectrophotometric measurement of biomass (viable and non-viable cells) by total protein. It has also been used to study the effect of 17-allylamino-17-demethoxygeldanamycin (17-AAG) on proliferation of the five uveal melanoma cell lines. Absorbance of dye is measured at a wavelength of 565nm.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Dye binds to cellular protein and is then solubilized in base.

General description

The Sulforhodamine B method is simple, accurate, and provides consistent results. This assay system is a means of measuring total biomass by staining cellular proteins with sulforhodamine B.

  1. Which document(s) contains shelf-life or expiration date information for a given product?

    If available for a given product, the recommended re-test date or the expiration date can be found on the Certificate of Analysis.

  2. How do I get lot-specific information or a Certificate of Analysis?

    The lot specific COA document can be found by entering the lot number above under the "Documents" section.

  3. How do I find price and availability?

    There are several ways to find pricing and availability for our products. Once you log onto our website, you will find the price and availability displayed on the product detail page. You can contact any of our Customer Sales and Service offices to receive a quote.  USA customers:  1-800-325-3010 or view local office numbers.

  4. What is the Department of Transportation shipping information for this product?

    Transportation information can be found in Section 14 of the product's (M)SDS.To access the shipping information for this material, use the link on the product detail page for the product. 

  5. When using Product TOX6, In Vitro Toxicology Assay Kit Sulforhodamine B based, what happens if I add kit component Product T5413, 10 mM Tris Base Solution, prior to fixing the cells?

    If the 10 mM Tris Base Solution, Product T5413 is added to the cells before the TCA (fixative), the cells will be lysed.  This reagent is not buffered and is not isotonic. The assay cannot be rescued if this occurs.

  6. Can you use Product TOX6, In Vitro Toxicology Assay Kit Sulforhodamine B based with suspension cells?

    Product TOX6, In Vitro Toxicology Assay Kit Sulforhodamine B can be used with both adherent and suspension culture.The advantage of layering the fixative directly onto the media is that this allows the assay to work for cells in suspension.  Otherwise, you need to centrifuge, remove the media and then fix.  Also, it is possible to loose cells when you remove the media. It was found that adding the fixative works for the assay and the protocol was changed in 2003.
