6. The absorption measurements were recorded at room temperature and after 10-min incubation time.
7. Do not heat; water temperature should be kept between 15
and 20 °C.
8. The cell concentration that is plated may vary for different cell
lines. For SW480 and HeLa cell lines, we use concentrations
in the range of 500 to 2000 cells/well, respectively.
9. For more reliable results the experiment should be done in
triplicate and in duplicate in case of primary cells and when a
range of drug concentrations are being tested.
10. Drugs should be added into the 96-well plates and stored at
−20 °C in advance of the experiments.
11. Shake the plates for 5 min on a plate shaker by slowly increasing the shaking speed to a maximum of 900 shakes/min. Then
incubate the plate for another 4–6 h at 37 °C in a CO 2 incubator, depending on the cell type.
12. The cell plate has to rest for 10 min before measuring.
13. The percentage of living cells can be determined: The average
optical density of the blank control wells (without cells and if
the drug has no specific optical density without drug as well)
is subtracted from the average optical density of the control
wells (cells but no drugs) and the wells containing the drugs.
