Why Attend the MTT Workshop?

Instructor's Explanation:

TPCF is holding a workshop on cell cytotoxicity assessment using the MTT assay to enhance researchers' knowledge and training. Many researchers across various fields such as biotechnology, biomedical engineering, nanotechnology, and other basic and medical sciences are keen on learning about the MTT cell toxicity test.

For instance, many researchers synthesize nanoparticles, drugs, or contrast agents in their laboratories that need to be tested on cells to determine their toxicity before being used in the body. The MTT test is a widely used assay in research articles and references, making it a suitable method for assessing the effect of these substances on cells.

Given the details and intricacies of this test, the preclinical laboratory has decided to offer the MTT test as a three-day workshop for interested researchers.

On the first day, cells will be cultured in plates; on the second day, the drug will be added to the cells; and on the third day, readings and calculations will be conducted. In addition to the practical work, the first day will cover cell culture basics, the second day will include various proliferation and cytotoxicity tests, and the third day will delve into the principles of spectrophotometry and how to operate the device. Participants are expected to become familiar with various cytotoxicity tests and be able to perform the MTT assay in their laboratories after the workshop.

Wishing all esteemed researchers continued success.
