Cell viability assays are methods employed to assess the ability of cells, tissues, or organs to maintain or recover a state of survival. These assays are utilized to evaluate optimal growth conditions for cells in culture in response to external stimuli, chemicals, and medicinal treatments.
The main products associated with cell viability assays include consumables and instruments. Consumables are items used either once or replaced regularly in the assay process. They find applications in various fields such as basic research, stem cell research, drug discovery and development, clinical and diagnostic applications, and more. These products are utilized by academic and research institutes, pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, hospital and diagnostic laboratories, among others.
