FAQ from Trevigen
The Tube Formation assay is rapid, inexpensive and quantifiable.
It can be used to identify potentially angiogenic and anti-angiogenic factors; to determine endothelial cell phenotype, and to study pathways and mechanisms involved in angiogenesis.
It can be performed in a high throughput mode to screen for a large numbers of compounds.
Therefore, the Tube Formation assay is the most widely used in vitro angiogenesis assay.
