Assay Name
In Vitro ATP Assay (Cell Viability)
Short Description
HEL 92.1.7-cell based In Vitro ATP Assay (Cell Viability)
Assay Description
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) assay is another widely used cell viability assay. When the cancer cells undergo apoptosis or necrosis upon treatment with a compound, cellular ATP content decreases and it can be quantified by colorimetric, fluorometric or luminometric way. The latest bioluminescence assays measure cellular ATP content using the enzyme luciferase which is more sensitive and reproducible when determining cell viability compared to conventional assays.

Assay Type Details
Uncontrolled proliferation is one of the main features of cancer cells. Cell-based in vitro assays are employed to determine whether test molecules possess direct cytotoxic/antiproliferative effects in cancer cells.
