MTT Formazan is a purple water-insoluble product formed by the reduction of yellow soluble MTT by succinate dehydrogenase in the mitochondria of viable cells. The amount of MTT Formazan produced is proportional to cellular metabolic activity, and it can serve as an indicator for evaluating cell viability and proliferation. MTT Formazan exhibits solvent-dependent solubility properties, and its absorbance value can be measured by spectrophotometry to reflect cellular status. MTT Formazan also supports the assessment of cell viability in bacterial MTT assays. MTT Formazan can be used in photoacoustic microscopy to enhance the imaging effect of viable cells, especially in applications in the fields of three-dimensional cell culture and tissue engineering .

Cat. No.: HY-15924
CAS No.: 298-93-1
Synonyms: MTT; Thiazolyl Blue Tetrazolium bromide; Methylthiazolyldiphenyl-tetrazolium bromide
Thiazolyl Blue (MTT) is a cell-permeable and positively charged tetrazolium dye that is used to detect reductive metabolism in cells. Thiazolyl Blue is taken up by cells through the plasma membrane and then reduced to formazan by intracellular NAD (P) H-oxidoreductases. Thiazolyl Blue is frequently used in colorimetric assays to measure cell proliferation, cytotoxicity, and apoptosis .
