In Vitro MTS Assay (Cell Viability)

Apart from the MTT tetrazolium, other tetrazolium compounds such as MTS (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium) can also gener ate formazan upon reduction by oxidoreductase or dehydrogenase. Unlike the normal MTT assay, assays with these regents (MTS, XTT and WST) do not require formazan solubiliza tion step as solubilization occurs in the cell medium itself. Therefore, XTT, WST and MTS reagents can be used to assay viability of cells, which do not require a surface to attach.

Cell Viability/Cytotoxicity and Antiproliferative Assays

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.
