How Do Cell Culture Techniques Enhance Toxicological Testing?
Cell culture techniques enhance toxicological testing by allowing for high-throughput screening of numerous compounds. Using assays like the MTT assay, researchers can rapidly assess cell viability and cytotoxic effects. Advanced techniques, such as fluorescent imaging and confocal microscopy, provide detailed insights into cellular morphology and function. These approaches enable the identification of mechanisms of toxicity and the assessment of potential therapeutic interventions.
