Resazurin is a blue non-<wbr></wbr>fluorescent dye that when reduced to the highly red-<wbr></wbr>fluorescent product resorufin (excitation: 530-<wbr></wbr>540 nm; emission: 585-<wbr></wbr>595 nm) can be used as a quantifiable detection agent for enzyme activity assays. The non-<wbr></wbr>fluorescent resazurin can be used as an oxidation-<wbr></wbr>reduction indicator in cell viability assays in a variety of cells.
