Related Product Information for CytoSelect 48-well Cell Adhesion Assay (Laminin, Fluorometric) assay kit
Principle of the Assay: The CytoSelect Cell Adhesion Assay Kit utilizes a Laminin-coated 48-well plate (see Adhesion Plate Layout). First, cells are seeded onto the coated substrate, where the adherent cells are captured. Next, unbound cells are removed with consecutive washes. Finally, the adherent cells are lysed and subsequently detected with CyQuant GR Dye.
Background: 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 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 Mouse Laminin I-coated wells, 8 BSA-coated wells).

Product Notes
The CytoSelect 48-well Cell Adhesion Assay (Laminin, Fluorometric) (Catalog #
AAA169170) is an Assay Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase.
It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of
"CytoSelect 48-well Cell Adhesion Assay (Laminin, Fluorometric), Assay Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of
the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always
suggest centrifuging these vials
to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to
opening. Please be advised that
