THE REDUCTION OF TETRAZOLIUM SALTS BY ASCITES TUMOR CELLS IN THE PRESENCE OF GLUCOSE
1 Institute for Cell Research, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden
The Ehrlich ascites tumor cells reduce tetrazolium salts intensely in the presence of glucose. The analysis of this glucose staining indicates the role of an electron-carrier in the glycolysis, probably of glycerolaldehyde-dehydrogenase. The qualitative and quantitative aspects of glucose-staining were investigated and discussed. Submitted on November 7, 1957
