Abstract:
Measuring the viability of the cells after chemical or physical stresses is a routine method in the determination of phenotypes in yeast. Numerous analytical techniques have been applied to the measurement of yeast cell viability, but few of them are suitable for real-time monitoring. Here we propose a microplate-based method for real-time monitoring of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell viability. This method is also suitable for high-throughput measurement.
