Theoretical and experimental analysis of the accuracy and reproducibility of cell tracking velocimetry

The accuracy and reproducibility of cell tracking velocimetry (CTV) was determined experimentally. The minimum and maximum cell velocities based on a number of intrinsic constants and variables were determined by a model. The model was tested using a number of calibration particles. Reproducibility...

Summary:The accuracy and reproducibility of cell tracking velocimetry (CTV) was determined experimentally. The minimum and maximum cell velocities based on a number of intrinsic constants and variables were determined by a model. The model was tested using a number of calibration particles. Reproducibility of the system was tested by measuring the settling velocities of the three Duke bead populations. A good agreement was found between model and experimental data.
