Determination of Breast Cancer Cell Migration Rates

Louis Corradino Jr., Queensborough Community College, Bayside, NY and Regina Sullivan, Queensborough Community College, Bayside, NY.

A scratch assay using breast cancer cells will be performed. Breast cancer cells will be plated, and then scratched with a pipette tip to create a wound in the monolayer. Our goal is to study the effect of different adhesion substrates on the rate of cell migration.
