Cell Signaling MultiTox-Fluor Multiplex Cytotoxicity Assay Product MultiTox-Fluor Multiplex Cytotoxicity Assay For Laboratory Use. Description: The MultiTox-Fluor Multiplex Cytotoxicity Assay is a singlereagent-addition, homogeneous, fluorescent assay that measures the number of live and dead cells simultaneously in culture wells. The assay simultaneously measures cell viability and cytotoxicity by detecting two distinct protease activities. The live-cell protease activity is restricted to intact viable cells and is measured using a fluorogenic, cell-permeant peptide substrate (GF-AFC Substrate). The substrate enters intact cells where it is cleaved to generate a fluorescent signal proportional to the number of living cells. This live-cell protease activity marker becomes inactive upon loss of membrane integrity and leakage into the surrounding culture medium. A second, cell-impermeant, fluorogenic peptide substrate (bis-AAF-R110 Substrate) is used to measure dead-cell protease activity that has been released from cells that have lost membrane integrity. Features: • Measure the Number of Live and Dead Cells in Culture: “Add-mixmeasure” protocol eliminates parallel plate processing and reduces cell culture costs. • Normalize Data for Cell Number: The ratio of live:dead cells is independent of cell number and normalizes data, making results more comparable well-to-well, plate-to-plate, day-to-day. • Reduce False-Positive and -Negative Results: Complementary liveand dead-cell measures with independent chemistries serve as internal controls for each other. • Get More Data from Every Well: Multiplex the MultiTox-Fluor Assay with most Promega bioluminescent cell-based apoptosis or genetic reporter assays. • Reduce Assay Variability: The homogeneous “add-mix-measure” protocol avoids the cumulative error associated with multistep protocols. Storage Conditions: Store at –20°C. Protocol MultiTox-Fluor Multiplex Cytotoxicity Assay Part# TB348 2) Add substrates.tes.
