cell viability assays

Cell viability assays are laboratory tests used to measure the health and survival of cells. They help scientists determine if cells are alive, growing, or dying under different conditions or treatments. The process often involves adding special dyes or chemicals that can detect living cells based on their metabolic activity or membrane integrity. These tests are important for research, drug development, and understanding diseases, as they provide quick and accurate insights into how cells respond to various factors, guiding scientists in making informed conclusions about cell health and function.
