Abstract

The present invention relates to growing and testing eukaryotic cells (e.g., animal or plant cells) in a multi-test format. In particular, the present invention provides methods and kits for obtaining a complex metabolic profile of animal cells. In addition, the present invention provides tools for assaying the effects of candidate compounds (e.g., hormones) on substrate utilization by mammalian cells.
