App Suite – Motility

App Suite

HoloMonitor App Suite is a new proprietary software based on biological applications. Using App Suite you can easily perform live cell studies on various cellular events. The App Suite software has an intuitive user interface guiding the user through the simple step-by-step workflow, from set-up of the experiment until the results are presented. HoloMonitor App Suite is designed for automated and detailed analysis of cell populations. The automated analysis extracts selected cellular parameters that are condensed into quantitative application-specific output parameters.

Cell Motility Module

Understanding the movement of cultured cells improves the understanding of cell movement and signalling in living organisms. Cell movement is categorized both by non-directional cell motility speed and by directional migration velocity. Motility is regarded as random cell movement, occurring in almost every cell culture, while migration is a response to a cell attractant or repellent.

The HoloMonitor® Motility Assay is designed to explore the average motility of cells in a population and is ideal for studies investigating how various treatments, drug candidates, or environments, influence cell motility over time. The cell motility can be long term analysed using normal cell growth media and environment, with no labelling, staining or phototoxicity. Motility is assessed in terms of speed kinetics, i.e. average cell speed over time. In addition, the accumulated mean distance, at each time point, is automatically determined by the software.
