Cell Proliferation Assays

Info in Brief

Free choice setup

The free choice setup, allows the client to test any number of compounds against any number of cell lines. Screening can be performed in single concentration mode for high-throughput projects or IC50 mode (8 concentrations in duplicates).

InfoSheet: Cell Proliferation Assay

ProLiFiler setup

Testing is performed on a panel of 140 human tumor cell lines with IC50 value determination (8 concentrations, duplicates).

Timelines: We are performing continuous screening and start over every 6 weeks.

Drug Combination Testing

ProQinase tests drug combination with either one-sided or two-sided approaches in either low or high-throughput setups. Drug Combination Testing is available for both, cell proliferation assay on a custom panel of cell lines or the ProLiFiler comprising testing of 120 cell lines.
