Unlock the secrets to accurate cell viability testing with our definitive guide to the WST-1 assay. Unlike older methods like MTT, WST-1 offers a "mix-and-read" simplicity that saves time and improves precision. This article condenses expert protocols from Abcam, Sigma-Aldrich, and research communities into a single, easy-to-follow workflow. From optimizing cell density to solving the dreaded "edge effect," we provide the tips you need to generate publication-quality data eff

Stop guessing your CCK-8 incubation times! While the CCK-8 assay is the gold standard for cell viability due to its non-toxicity and high sensitivity, the "2-hour rule" often leads to poor data quality. This Ultimate Guide explains the science of WST-8 kinetics and provides a step-by-step pilot protocol to determine the perfect incubation time for your specific cell line. Learn to avoid saturation, handle suspension cells, and troubleshoot bubbles to get publication-ready res
