I would like to evaluate the cytotoxicity of a compound in PBMC with a MTT assay. I add 100μl of cell suspension(seed 100.000 cells/well) and 100μl extract and after time of incubation i add 20μl MTT solution(5mg/ml) and incubate for 4 hours. After 4h, i remove all media and i add 100μl DMSO. Then, i mix the plate and measure the optical density at 570nm. Is that procedure correct? My query is when i remove all media, do i remove the lymphocytes and does this affect my results?
