WST-8 (Water-Soluble Tetrazolium 8) is a water-soluble tetrazolium salt widely used to assess the metabolic activity of cells. The dye does not penetrate living cells but can be reduced outside the cells by NADPH-dependent cellular oxidoreductases to water-soluble formazan. The reaction occurs by electron transfer across the plasma membrane in a neutral pH and the presence of an intermediate electron acceptor, 1-methoxyphenazine methosulfate. The staining intensity is proportional to the number of viable cells. The maximum absorption of the reaction product is 450–500 nm.
The use of WST-8 has several advantages:
- Unlike MTT, working with WST-8 does not require dissolving formazan crystals, simplifying the protocol, and eliminating the use of toxic solvents (e.g., DMSO).
- Cell analysis using WST-8 is a one-step method. The reagent is added directly to the culture medium, and the results are read without additional processing.
- WST-8 is non-toxic to cells, which allows for long incubations (up to 24 hours) without the risk of artifacts.
- High sensitivity of the method. A wide dynamic range ensures accuracy even at low cell density.
- The method is compatible with adherent and suspension cultures and various types of spectrophotometric measurement plates.
We also supply WST-8 as a ready-to-use kit for cell proliferation assay.
