Cell migration assays

2D Gap-closure Assays

It creates a defined area on a two-dimensional surface, such as the bottom of a cell culture plate well, across which migratory cells may move.

• Quantitatively or qualitatively measurement
• Any cell type migration 
• At the endpoint or in real time 
• By microscopic detection

Measure differences in migration rates between

 Boyden chamber Assays

It consists of a cell culture insert nested in the well of a cell culture plate. The bottom of the insert contains a membrane with a specific pore size. Cells are seeded in the top of the insert and move through the membrane pores to the underside

• Quantitatively measurement
• Numerous cell types migration 
• At the endpoint 
• By colorimetric or fluorescence detection

Measure effect of chemoattractant on migration rates 

You can also monitor cellular adhesion, invasion and wound healing
