Cell Biolabs Inc CytoSelect™ 24-Well Cell Migration and Invasion Assay Combo Kit (8 µm, Colorimetric), 2x12 assays
Supplier: Cell Biolabs Inc CBA100C

Chemotaxis, a type of cell migration, is a highly integrated, multistep process that orchestrates embryonic morphogenesis, tissue repair and regeneration. The initial response of a cell to a migration-promoting agent is to polarize and extend protrusions in the direction of the attractant. Cell invasion is the ability of malignant tumor cells to invade normal surrounding tissue, which contributes in large part to the significant morbidity and mortality of cancers. The CytoSelect™ Cell Migration and Invasion Assay Combo Kit utilizes polycarbonate membrane inserts (8 µm pore size) to assay the migratory and invasive properties of cells. The kit contains twelve uncoated 8 um polycarbonate membrane inserts in a 24-well plate for the evaluation of migration, and twelve 8 um polycarbonate membrane inserts coated with an ECM gel layer in a separate 24-well plate for the study of invasion. Cells are quantified using the provided Cell Stain Solution.
