I have had my results for a long time: but I do not yet know how I am to arrive at them. ~Karl Friedrich Gauss

| Dynamic Flow Assay in a Parallel Plate Flow Chamber - http://www.glycotech.com/protocols/proto7.html Flow assays allow visualization of cell adhesion under well-defined wall shear stress. Visualization of the events of cell adhesion are quantified by selective image acquisition and image processing. Events subsequent to the initial events can be studied such as cell stabilization and spreading. John T.

| Measurement of Cell Adhesion Under Static Conditions - http://www.glycotech.com/protocols/Proto8.html Many proteins and molecules promote cell adhesion including several cell surface carbohydrate binding proteins. Cell adhesion measurements on 96-well microtiter plate format are difficult due to the shear forces generated by washing the wells. The protocol here introduces the use of a liquid-filled wash chamber that separates unbound cells by gravity. This eliminates uncontrolled shear forces and passage of adherent cells through a liquid/air interface. John L.
