Cell viability, proliferation and colony-formation assays provide practical readouts of compound effects on cellular health, growth and survival across drug discovery, toxicity testing and cancer research.
For regular large-scale tumor-cell screening, explore our ICECP™ cancer cell panel screening service ↗.
Evaluate cytotoxic effects of new chemical entities or biologics across tumor cells and gene-edited cell models.
Assess compound effects on cell viability and proliferation to help define a safety profile.
Study anticancer-agent activity through cell proliferation and colony-formation endpoints.
Investigate cell-cycle progression, DNA synthesis and long-term survival following therapeutic intervention.
Cancer cell lines for viability assays
Cancer cell lines for clonogenic assays
Engineered cell lines
Resistant cell lines
Normal cell lines
CellTiter-Glo: ATP-based measurement of metabolically active cells. CellTiter-Blue: resazurin reduction to measure viable-cell number. MTT: formazan formation from MTT reduction. CCK-8: WST-8 colorimetric assessment. Nuclear stains: fluorescent distinction of live and dead cells.
CyQUANT: cellular DNA content as a proliferation readout. BrdU incorporation: newly synthesized DNA in proliferating cells.
Crystal violet staining: visualizes and quantifies colonies formed by individual cells to assess clonogenic survival and proliferative capacity.
96- or 384-well plate assays for high-throughput screening, including short-term 3–6 day or long-term 7–14 day proliferation studies.
24-, 12- or 6-well formats support detailed colony-formation analysis over 10–14 days.
Assay configurations can support single-agent testing, combination studies, and programs requiring scalable throughput.
