Hi,

This will be my first time doing this assay. For context, my experiment will be to determine if some compounds have any anti-inflammatory effect.

I plan to do the following steps:

1) Seed 200ul of 1 x 10^4 RAW 264.7 cells in 96 well. Incubate for 24 hrs.

2) Treat cells with compounds (OTC as positive control) for 2 hours.

3) Add LPS (1ug/ml) and incubate for 24 hrs.

4) Determine NO production with griess reagent.

My question is, before I treat the cells with the compounds, should I refresh the media? If you do, do you account for the volume of compounds and LPS added for a final volume of 200ul as well?

Also, if there are any tips in general, that would be great as well.
