products description :
Principle of the Assay: The CytoSelectTM Cell Adhesion Assay Kit utilizes an ECM protein-coated 48-well plate (see Adhesion Plate Layout below). First, cells are seeded onto the coated substrate, where the adherent cells captured. Next, unbound cells are washed away, and the adherent cells are fixed/stained. Finally, the stain is extracted and quantified colorimetrically. Background/Introduction: Cell adhesion is a complex process involved in embryogenesis, migration/invasion, tissue remodeling, and wound healing. To perform these processes, cells adhere to extracellular matrix components (via adhesion receptors), forming complexes with components of the cytoskeleton that ultimately affect cell motility, differentiation, proliferation, and survival. The CytoSelect TM Cell Adhesion Assay Kit provides a rapid, quantitative method for evaluating cell adhesion. The kit contains sufficient reagents for the evaluation of 48 samples (40 ECM protein-coated wells, 8 BSA-coated wells).
