Bioactivity
Tetrazolium violet is a redox indicator extensively employed in biochemical assays to assess cell viability and metabolic activity. Its unique chemical properties allow it to be reduced by cellular enzymes like dehydrogenases, forming a purple formazan product that is detectable via spectrophotometry. This makes it a valuable tool for evaluating cell health and growth in culture or tissue samples.
