Quantification of neutral red pinocytosis by small numbers of adherent cells: comparative studies.

Płytycz B , Rózanowska M , Seljelid R .


???displayArticle.abstract???
A colorimetric assay has been developed for studies on neutral red (NR) pinocytosis by small numbers (below 2 x 10(5)) of adherent cells cultured in 96 well plates. The NR uptake per cell mass was much higher in the sea urchin perivisceral adherent cells and human HL-60 cell line monolayers than in the murine and Atlantic salmon macrophages. The apparent difference points to the usefulness of this novel assay in comparative studies.
