Cell Movement
Enhance Cell Movement Assays
Cellular movement is exhibited by many cell types and is critical to normal immune function as well as cancer invasion. BioFlux 24-well plates are perfectly designed for physiologically relevant movement assays.
BioFlux shear flow systems provide several distinct advantages over movement and invasion assays conducted in well plates, including physiological flow (unidirectional, pulsatile, or oscillatory), straightforward imaging of the taxis process, and no need for artificial membranes. In addition, unlike do-it-yourself parallel plate flow chambers, BioFlux plates for cell movement do not require specialized assembly or intensive cleaning.
Cell Movement Imaging Using BioFlux
Key BioFlux Advantages For Migration & Invasion Studies
- Timelapse data for cell movement can be collected at any frequency for any duration desired
- Higher quality physiological data with real-time imaging and measurements
- Save time by collecting data direct from movement assays with no transfer steps
- Create two microenvironments within a microfluidic channel using a two inlet channel and parallel flowstreams
- Movement assays can be performed label-free
