Osteogenesis Quantitation Kit

32161000

CHEMICON′s Osteogenesis Quantitation Kit provides all the necessary reagents and a protocol to enable quantification of osteogenesis using a standard plate reader. This product is useful for studying the effects of growth factors, drugs and toxic agents on bone formation and for screening candidate osteogenic pharmaceuticals. Also, studies examining the intracellular signaling pathways regulating osteoblast differentiation can be facilitated by use of this kit.

The kit includes Alizarin Red Solution, a staining solution which can be used to visually detect the presence of mineralization in bone tissue. Also included are reagents for extraction of Alizarin Red from stained cells, and a protocol for performing quantitative analysis of the extracted Alizarin Red. Enough reagents are provided to perform 48 quantitation assays on 24 well plates.
