Notes

Cell Migration/Chemotaxis Assay Kit (96-well, 5 μm) (ab235693) utilizes a Boyden chamber, where the cells migrate through a semi-permeable membrane under different stimuli. Cell migration can be analyzed directly by reading fluorescence (Ex/Em = 530/590 nm) in a plate reader. The assay is easy to use, sensitive and adaptable to high-throughput systems.

This product is manufactured by BioVision, an Abcam company and was previously called K907 EZCell™ Cell Migration/Chemotaxis Assay Kit (96-well, 5 μm). K907-100 is the same size as the 100 test size of ab235693.

Cell migration is a process by which cells move from one location to another. Cell motility is observed in unicellular organisms, and is essential for the development and maintenance of multicellular organisms. Cells often migrate in response to specific external stimuli, including chemical & mechanical signals. Errors during this process have serious consequences, including intellectual disability, vascular disease, tumor formation and metastasis.

    Cell Migration.

    Monocytes/macrophage cells were starved overnight and treated with Control Migration Inducer for 24 h, 48 h or left untreated (Cnt: control cells). Treatment with Control Migration Inducer demonstrated a significant increase in migration with time as compared to control cells.

    Standard Curve.

    Monocytes/macrophage cells were harvested, counted and serially diluted to obtain desired cell number. Cells were incubated according to the protocol with Cell Dye and RFU (Ex/Em = 530/590 nm) was measured.
