Testing Data (Figure 1. Absorption spectrum of WST-8 formazan Figure 1 shows the absorption spectrum of WST-8 formazan. Since the absorbance at 460 nm is proportional to the number of viable cells in the medium, the viable cell number can be determined using the absorbance of a previously prepared calibration curve.)

Related Product Information for Cell Counting Kit-8 accessory reagent
Background/Introduction: Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) allows very convenient assays by utilizing highly water-soluble tetrazolium salt. WST-8 [2-(2-methoxy-4-nitrophenyl)-3-(4-nitrophenyl)-5-(2, 4-disulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium, monosodium salt]* produces a water-soluble formazan dye upon reduction in the presence of an electron carrier. Cell Counting Kit-8 is a one-bottle solution; no premixing of components is required. Cell Counting Kit-8, being nonradioactive, allows sensitive colorimetric assays for the determination of the number of viable cells in cell proliferation cytotoxicity assays. WST-8 is reduced by dehydrogenases in cells to give an orange colored product (formazan), which is soluble in the tissue culture medium. The amount of the formazan dye generated by the activity of dehydrogenases in cells is directly proportional to the number of living cells. The cell proliferation assay using CCK-8 correlates well with the [(3)H]thymidine incorporation assay. And the CCK-8 assay can also be substituted for the [(3)H]thymidine incorporation assay. The detection sensitivity of CCK-8 is higher than other tetrazolium salts such as MTT, XTT, MTS or WST-1.

Product Notes

The Cell Counting Kit-8 (Catalog #AAA176412) is an Accessory Reagent and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Cell Counting Kit-8, Accessory Reagent" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
