Cultrex® 96 Well BME Cell Invasion Assays
| 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. |
