Cultrex® 96 Well BME Cell Invasion Assays

Cultrex® 96 Well BME Cell Invasion Assay
 
Cultrex® Cell Invasion Assays were created in an effort to accelerate the screening process for compounds that influence cell migration through extracellular matrices. These assays offer a flexible, standardized, high-throughput format for quantitating the degree to which invasive cells penetrate a barrier consisting of basement membrane components in vitro in response to chemoattractants and/or inhibiting compounds. The Cultrex® Cell Invasion Assay has been adapted to multiple formats so that cell invasion may be evaluated against different extracellular matrices; the assay is available in the following formats: Basement Membrane Extract (BME), Laminin I, Collagen I, Collagen IV.
