An assay is an investigative procedure in laboratory medicine, pharmacology, environmental biology, and molecular biology for qualitatively assessing or quantitatively measuring the presence or functional activity of the analyte, or the entity being targeted by the assay. Generally, assays involve biological materials or phenomena which tend to be intrinsically more complex in composition or in behavior than what can be handled by traditional chemical analysis and titration.
Cell viability assay kits
Supplier: Biotium
MTT, XTT, and resazurin are reduced by mitochondrial metabolic activity to yield coloured or fluorescent products, and thus are useful for and assaying cell viability and quantitating cell number. MTT and XTT are reduced to coloured formazin salts that can be measured by absorbance. MTT generates an insoluble formazin salt, requiring cell lysis before the absorbance can be measured, while XTT does not require cell lysis for measurement. Resazurin is a non-fluorescent blue dye that is reduced to the pink fluorescent compound resorufin, which can be measured by fluorescence or absorbance.

Neutrophil/Monocyte Respiratory Burst Assay Kit
Supplier: Cayman Chemical
Neutrophil/Monocyte Respiratory Burst Assay Kit provides PMA, dihydrorhodamine 123, and additional reagents necessary for inducing and quantifying a respiratory burst response in neutrophils and monocytes by flow cytometry. The assay can be performed on whole blood or on cells in various types of cell culture media. Because the assay reagents are not species-specific, this assay can be used in any species or cell type capable of producing a NADPH oxidase-dependent respiratory burst response.

TUNEL assay kits
Supplier: Biotium
TUNEL (terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) mediated dUTP nick-end labeling) is highly selective for the detection of apoptotic cells, but not necrotic cells or cells with DNA strand breaks resulting from irradiation or drug treatment. In this assay, TdT enzyme catalyses the addition of labeled dUTP to the 3’ ends of cleaved DNA fragments. Fluorescent dye-conjugated dUTP can be used for direct detection of fragmented DNA by fluorescence microscopy or flow cytometry.

Calcein-AM cell viability assay kits
Supplier: Biotium
Calcein-AM is a non-fluorescent, membrane permeable compound. Esterase activity in the cytoplasm of viable cells converts calcein-AM to the green fluorescent, membrane impermeant compound calcein, which is retained in viable cells with intact plasma membranes. The Viability/Cytotoxicity Assay kit for Animal Live & Dead Cells pairs calcein-AM with the vital dye ethidium homodimer III for quantitation of live and dead cells.
