FAQ from Trevigen
Cell migration is the movement of cells in response to a chemical stimulus; this is also known as chemotaxis. Cultrex® Cell Migration Assays evaluate cell migration based on the cells’ ability to traverse an uncoated membrane with 8 micron pores, in response to a chemotactic gradient. The cells must undergo cytoskeletal remodeling to fit into the pores and pull themselves through to the underside of the membrane. (Cat# 3465-024-K & 3465-096-K)
