Trevigen Launches Cultrex® 24 Well Cell Invasion Assay Kits

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) March 20, 2008 -- Trevigen's Cultrex® 24 Well Cell Invasion Assay kits quantify the degree to which invasive cells penetrate either basement membrane extract, collagen I, collagen IV, or laminin I, in vitro. The kit uses Calcein AM to assay invasive properties of cells in response to stimulators or inhibitors.

Utilizing a simplified Boyden chamber design with individual 8 µm
polyester membrane inserts, the 24 well format allows users to

independently coat with a matrix of their choice and assess cell responses to varying thicknesses and dilutions of the matrix. For more information, contact Trevigen by phone at 800-873-8443, email info@trevigen.com or visit the website www.trevigen.com.
