COLLAGEN SUBSTRATA FOR STUDIES ON CELL BEHAVIOR

Open access
Elsdale, Tom, Bard, Jonathan·1972·The Journal of Cell Biology

Abstract

A simple technique is described for the preparation of collagen substrata containing 0 1% of collagen by weight, in the form of native bundles with a 640 A period, the substrata are similar in these respects to soft-tissue matrices These substrate are hydrated collagen lattices (HCLs) in which the watery milieu is held within a fibrous collagen net mainly by capillary forces. HCLs have been characterized in terms of the course of collagen precipitation and aggregation, ultrastructure, and their stability under various conditions. The ways in which HCLs can be employed as both two- and three-dimensional substrata in cell behavioral studies are illustrated with some preliminary observations on the form, motility, adhesion, and growth of human diploid cells and two lines of malignant cells.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
