H2DCFDA detects intracellular ROS levels in 3D Glioblastoma cell lines.
By sara Azeem on 01/08/2020
Assay Type: In Vitro
Species: Human
Cell Line/Tissue: G7

Glioblatsoma cell line G7 was cultured in 3D sphere model and the levels of intracellular ROS were measured.

Try different dilutions to get the one best suited to you.We treated the cells for 30 minutes and that was enough to get robust results

By Chintan Koyani on 10/13/2018
Assay Type: In Vitro
Species: Mouse
Cell Line/Tissue: HL-1 cardiomyocytes

HL-1 cardiomyocytes were stimulated with 15d-PGJ2 up to 60 min to follow intracellular ROS levels using H2DCFDA.
