ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to high-throughput cell-based assays for real-time monitoring of multi-resistant drug protein activity. The present invention is an improvement over existing assays in that in addition to a fluorescent drug efflux probe as an indicator of MDR protein activity, the instant assays provide an o-tolidine-based dye for quenching extracellular fluorescence of the probe.
