What does Alamar Blue measure?
Overview. alamarBlue is a cell viability assay reagent which contains the cell permeable, non-toxic, and weakly fluorescent blue indicator dye called resazurin. alamarBlue quantitatively measures proliferation in human, animal, bacterial, fungal, and mycobacterial cells.
How does the Alamar blue assay work?
AlamarBlue Cell Viability Assay reagent quantitatively measures the proliferation of mammalian cell lines, bacteria and fungi. The dye incorporates an oxidation-reduction (REDOX) indicator that both fluoresces and change color in response to the chemical reduction of growth medium due to cell growth.
What is microplate Alamar blue assay?
The 96-well Microplate Alamar Blue Assay (MABA) allows for the quantitative determination of drug susceptibility against any strain of replicating Mycobacterium tuberculosis to be completed within a week at minimal cost. tuberculosis is an important factor when developing drug candidates against M. tuberculosis.
How do you analyze LDH?
LDH activity can be easily quantified by using the NADH produced during the conversion of lactate to pyruvate to reduce a second compound in a coupled reaction into a product with properties that are easily quantitated.
What does a high LDH mean?
Higher than normal LDH levels usually means you have some type of tissue damage or disease. Disorders that cause high LDH levels include: Anemia. Kidney disease. Liver disease.
What is Maba assay?
The 96-well Microplate Alamar Blue Assay (MABA) allows for the quantitative determination of drug susceptibility against any strain of replicating Mycobacterium tuberculosis to be completed within a week at minimal cost. The Low-Oxygen Recovery Assay (LORA) uses a recombinant M. tuberculosis.
What is Maba in microbiology?
The use of the microplate alamar blue assay (MABA) to assess the susceptibility of Mycobacterium lepraemurium to anti-leprosy and other drugs. J Infect Chemother.
