title: Clonogenic cytotoxicity testing by microdrop encapsulation.
abstract: Cytotoxicity is defined as the in situ measurement of cellular function in response to a toxic substance. Cytotoxicity assays are widely used in drug screening and development research to minimize the number of compounds on which expensive mammalian animal model toxicology studies are performed.
