Q:

Do you know if treating cells with 10mM MgCl2 would interfere with the ToxiLight™ Non-Destructive Cytotoxicity BioAssay?

A:

Magnesium (Mg) is a cofactor for both luciferase and Adenylate Kinase (AK) and will speed up their reactions, but this amount of MgCl2 wouldn't make a significant difference.
