I am conducting experiments on hormone secretion and hypothesize my compounds induced secretion in a calcium-independent manner. Can I incubate cells in HBSS without Ca and Mg for about 4 hours? Is this a good design?
I just tried this out and checked cell viability using trypan blue exclusion and MTT. Cells were fine during the test period.
To be on the safe side, I would eliminate only one of Ca and Mg for four hours.
Ok. Thanks. I think that's a better idea
Magnesium is essential for many metabolic functions in cells. It may be quite toxic to exclude it for more than 15 minutes.
I am performing a simple close range photogrammetry test and comparing outcomes of photogrammetry tools such as VisualSFM, Meshroom, Colmap etc. Kindly advice, what post evaluation tests/ criteria...
