SRB Cytotoxicity Assay

Description

SRB Cytotoxicity Assay Kit

Overview
The SRB (Sulforhodamine B) Cytotoxicity Assay Kit from Canvax® provides a robust colorimetric method for evaluating cell density based on cellular protein content. SRB binds to protein components in fixed cells and provides a sensitive measure of cell mass, making it ideal for screening compounds that affect cell proliferation or survival.

Key Features

• Quantitative and reproducible

• High-throughput compatible

• Simple colorimetric readout

• Sensitive to both cell number and growth changes

• No need for radioactive materials or metabolic activity

Applications

• Drug screening and cytotoxicity testing

• Assessment of anticancer activity in vitro

• Measurement of cell proliferation or growth inhibition
