BlueScreen HC - A Luminescence Based, High-Throughput, In Vitro Genotoxicity Assay
26 Oct 2011The BlueScreen HC assay from Gentronix utilizes a luminescence-based reporter system to measure genotoxicity. The assay generates positive results e.g for direct-acting mutagens and clastogens and correct negative results for non-carcinogens. In addition, reduced cell proliferation, a measure of cytotoxicity, is assessed, too. Using the FLUOstar Omega microplate reader from BMG LABTECH the BlueScreen HC assay has been shown to be fast, accurate and reproducible.
