Abstract

Cell viability and cytotoxicity assays are used usually for screening of drugs and cytotoxicity tests of chemicals. Cell viability, cell proliferation and many important live-cell functions can be stimulated or monitored with various chemical and biological reagents. The present chapter is aimed to discuss the various available method
