A Quick Organoid Viability Measurement by Using Cyto3D® Live-Dead Assay Kit

Introduction Organoids are three-dimensional (3D) tiny, self-organized tissue structures that mimic an organ’s functional and structural features. These self-organized 3D structures can be used to replicate much of the complexity of an organ. Compared to 2D monolayer cell cultures, organoids are becoming increasingly popular among research communities due to physiological similarities to intact tissues and […]
