Resazurin (Cat No.: I012269) is a redox indicator widely used in cell viability assays, metabolic studies, and bacterial contamination detection. It is a non-toxic, blue dye that is reduced to resorufin, a highly fluorescent pink compound, in metabolically active cells. This colorimetric and fluorometric change makes resazurin an effective tool for assessing cell proliferation, cytotoxicity, and mitochondrial function in drug discovery and biomedical research. Its high sensitivity and compatibility with various assay formats ensure reliable and reproducible results in biological and biochemical studies.
