Optimizing MEA assays with imaging

 

Finding the right density and timing is critical for your MEA experiments. Visual confirmation of cell attachment and distribution ensures reliable recordings and reduces experimental variability.

​In this case study, LUMC researchers aimed to optimize the density of new cell lines on the Maestro MEA. While activity showed a drop-off at the highest density and a decrease over time in the medium density, live-cell imaging revealed that higher densities led to increased cell clumping and poor attachment.

​With the Connected Lab, the team was able to simultaneously optimize cultures for even coverage and activity.​
