Comparison of in vitro scratch wound assay experimental procedures KU Leuven Ghent University
Fibroblast migration is an important aspect of wound healing. Different factors can influence migration and as such proper wound healing. In vitro scratch wound assays are used to examine cellular migration. However, the wide array of techniques available reduces reproducibility of findings. In this paper, we compare two techniques for wound creation; i.e. the exclusion method or scratching of cell monolayers. Furthermore, we investigate if ...
