CytoSelect™ 96-well In Vitro Tumor Sensitivity Assay (Soft Agar Colony Formation)

• Screen for effects of anticancer compounds
• Uses traditional 3D soft agar matrix
• Fully quantify tumor sensitivity with no manual cell counting
• Results in 6-8 days, not 3 weeks

Traditionally, the soft agar colony formation assay has been used to monitor anchorage-independent growth. Cells proliferate for 3-4 weeks in a semisolid culture medium, followed by tedious manual counting of colonies. Our CytoSelect™ 96-Well In Vitro Tumor Sensitivity Assay provides a stringent, anchorage-independent model for chemosenstivity testing and screening of potential anticancer drugs. After just 6-8 days, cell colonies are quantified using a standard colorimetric microplate reader.
