The clonogenic assay: robustness of plating efficiency-based analysis is strongly compromised by cellular cooperation
Abstract Background The clonogenic assay is a versatile and frequently used tool to quantify reproductive cell survival in vitro. Current state-of-the-art analysis relies on plating efficiency-based calculations which assume a linear correlation between the number of cells seeded and the number of c...
