Free Webinar - Increased Confidence of Wound Healing Assays by Assessing Cell Migration and Cell Viability
11 Sept 2016
Lynsey Forsyth
Post Doc / Research Fellow
Expert insights
In this free webinar, Dr Katrin Flatscher, Application Scientist, and Dr Michael Fejtl, Market Manager Detection, at Tecan, will describe application of the Spark® Multimode Reader imaging capabilities for monitoring cell migration in wound healing, using the Radius™ 96-well Cell Migration Assay as a test system.
In this webinar, you will learn how the correlation between cellular confluence and intracellular ATP content can be used as an indicator of cell viability and metabolism.
Key learning objectives:
- Automation of wound healing assays
- Using imaging and multimode reader data to analyze wound healing

Microplate Readers / DetectorsMicroplate readers are used to automate the detection and analysis of labeled or label-free components in microplates during assays or live-cell monitoring. Microplate readers are generally distinguished by their mode of detection. Types include absorbance, luminescence, fluorescence intensity, fluorescence polarization, TRF / FRET and multimode microplate readers. Microplate readers deliver a high throughput of samples by reading multiple wells simultaneously, with the 96-well format the most commonly used. As a result, microplate readers are often used in the drug discovery, bioassays, research and pharmaceutical industries for screening applications. Microplate loading can also be automated, with robotic microplate stackers to increase throughput.

This can reveal information on cell health (apoptosis, cytotoxicity, viability and proliferation assays), cell metabolism, cell migration and cell signaling mechanisms.
