Standard Operating Procedure to Optimize Resazurin-Based Viability Assays

open access: yesBiosensors
The resazurin assay, also known as the Alamar Blue assay, stands as a cornerstone technique in cell biology, microbiology, and drug development. It assesses the viability of cells through the conversion of resazurin into highly fluorescent resorufin. The

Revisiting the Resazurin-Based Sensing of Cellular Viability: Widening the Application Horizon

open access: yesBiosensors, 2022
Since 1991, the NAD(P)H-aided conversion of resazurin to fluorescent resorufin has been widely used to measure viability based on the metabolic activity in mammalian cell culture and primary cells.

Resazurin Reduction-Based Assays Revisited: Guidelines for Accurate Reporting of Relative Differences on Metabolic Status

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
Cell viability and metabolic activity are ubiquitous parameters used in biochemistry, molecular biology, and biotechnological studies. Virtually all toxicology and pharmacological projects include at some point the evaluation of cell viability and/or ...

Establishing Compliance between Spectral, Colourimetric and Photometric Indicators in Resazurin Reduction Test

open access: yesBioengineering, 2023
The resazurin reduction test is one of the basic tests for bacterial culture viability and drug resistance endorsed by the World Health Organisation. At the same time, conventional spectrophotometric and spectrofluorimetric methods demand rather bulky ...

Role of dipA and pilD in Francisella tularensis Susceptibility to Resazurin

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2021
The phenoxazine dye resazurin exhibits bactericidal activity against the Gram-negative pathogens Francisella tularensis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae. One resazurin derivative, resorufin pentyl ether, significantly reduces vaginal colonization by Neisseria ...

Application of the Resazurin Cell Viability Assay to Monitor Escherichia coli and Salmonella Typhimurium Inactivation Mediated by Phages

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2021
Bacterial inactivation using bacteriophages (or phages) has emerged as an effective solution for bacterial infections, but the screening methods used to evaluate the effectiveness of the phages to inactivate bacteria are not fast, reliable or precise ...

Microtitre plate-based antibacterial assay incorporating resazurin as an indicator of cell growth, and its application in the in vitro antibacterial screening of phytochemicals

open access: yesMethods, 2007
The resazurin assay utilising microtitre-plate, described by Drummond and Waigh in 2000, has been modified to achieve more accuracy in the determination of the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of natural products, including crude extracts ...
