Cell Viability % — cryopreserved

About Cell Viability % — cryopreserved

Calculate percent viability from live and dead cell counts (e.g. cryopreserved). Viability = live/(live+dead)×100. The calculation uses viability = live/(live+dead) × 100. The stakes: Seeding density, viability and MOI drive reproducibility in everything from drug screens to viral transductions. A counting error cascades into wrong doses and uninterpretable results. Trypan-blue excludes dead cells; count promptly (<5 min). Watch out for: reading plates outside the 30–300 colony range; applying MOI without titering the virus; counting cells on the wrong hemocytometer squares. Because the calculation happens entirely client-side, you can use it offline and with confidential data, then cite the stable URL in your methods or teaching notes.
