| Research Abstract |
New trend in methods for assessing pharmacological action to cancer cells is to mesure their metabolic activities induced, while the conventional methods used population growth, such as histoculture drug responseassay, (HDRA) or (CD-DST)-MTT assay, method. We focused n respiration volume as an indicato of cancer cell metabolism, and developed inexpensive disposable oxygen electrode sensor and multi-channnel dissolved oxygen meters (DOX-10 and DOX-96). Using these instruments, cytotoxicity was measured for 15 hours and the method showed superior features to conventional methods in its handiness of one step assay, and excellent adaptability to automated systems.
Total usability of this oxygen electrode method is being evaluated in anticancer drug susceptibility test and alternative to animal experiment.
