Abstract
Motility analysis of iPSC-derived microglia
Troubleshooting
Motility of iPSC-derived microglia (hMG) are assessed in 16 hours-time lapse experiments and analyzed using the Manual Tracker plug of ImageJ.
Analyses are done with Chemotaxis and Migration Tool free software version 2.0 (Ibidi). Velocity (μm/minute) and accumulated distance are evaluated. Accumulated distance refers to the path made by the cell from the starting point to the endpoint.
