Advanced wound healing assay workflow using automated scratch wound creation

In this application note, BioTek demonstrates the use of a novel, automated tool to create consistent and reproducible scratch wounds in cell monolayers formed on the bottom of a microplate well. This application note highlights the use of a single cancer cell model as well as a co-culture of fibroblasts and cancer cells; each plated in collagen-coated microplate wells to more closely simulate in vivo microenvironments and facilitate cell migration.
