Description of MTT

MTT (3-(4,5-Dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide) is a reagent used in the measurement of in vitro cell proliferation.

Tetrazolium salts have been the most widely used tools in cell biology for deternining the metabolic activity of cells ranging from microbial origin to mammalian. Fractionation studies in mammalian cells indicate that NADH, the reduced pyridine nucleotide cofactor, is responsible for most MTT reduction, which is further supported by studies with whole cells.

In vitro: It has been found that MTT reduction was associated not only with mitochondria, but also with the cytoplasm and nonmitochondrial membranes including endosome/lysosome compartment and plasma membrane. The net positive charge on MTT appears to be the predominant factor involved in their cellular uptake through the potential of plasma membrane. However, the second generation tetrazolium dyes (XTT, WST-1 and to some extent, MTS) that form water-soluble formazans and require an intermediate electron acceptor for reduction, are characterised by a net negative charge and therefore are largely cell-impermeable [1].

In vivo: MTT currently is only used for in vitro cell proliferation determination and there is no in vivo study reported.

計算

In vivo Formulation Calculator (Clear solution) of MTT

Step 1: Enter information below (Recommended: An additional animal making an allowance for loss during the experiment)

mg/kg g μL

Step 2: Enter the in vivo formulation (This is only the calculator, not formulation. Please contact us first if there is no in vivo formulation at the solubility Section.)

% DMSO % % Tween 80 % ddH2O
%DMSO %

Calculation results:

Working concentration: mg/ml;

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
3. All of the above co-solvents are available for purchase on the GlpBio website.
