CytoSelect™ 96-well Cell Transformation Assay

Product Description

The CytoSelect™ 96-Well Cell Transformation Assay (Soft Agar Colony Formation) is suitable for measuring cell transformation where no downstream analysis is required. Cells are incubated in a semisolid agar medium for 7-8 days. The cells are then solubilized, lysed and detected using the included fluorescent dye in a fluorometric plate reader.

The kit provides a robust system for screening oncogenes and cell transformation inhibitors. 

Please note that cells incubated using this assay may not be recovered intact. For recovery of intact viable cells, consider our Soft Agar Assay with Cell Recovery.

Advantages over Traditional Transformation Assays:

• Time Savings: 7 days vs. 21 days
• 96-well, High-Throughput Format
• No Manual Counting
• Fluorometric Detection
• More Accurate and Precise
• Easy-To-Follow Instructions
