CytoScan™ LDH Cytotoxicity assay quantitatively measures the cytosolic, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) enzyme, which is released from damaged cells. The released LDH is measured with a coupled enzymatic reaction that results in the conversion of a tetrazolium salt (iodonitrotetrazolium; (INT)) into a red color formazan by diaphorase. The resulting formazan is measured at 490 nm.

• Colorimetric assay
• Quantitatively measures LDH release
• For the detection of cell toxicity, death, viability or proliferation
• Ideal for high throughput screening
