About this ebook

This volume explores the latest experimental and computer-based methods used to study the field of motility research. The chapters in this book cover topics such as methods to investigate motility and chemotaxis in a range of systems including macrophages and Dictyostelium discoideum; ways in which electric fields impact motility and taxis; recently developed computer-based methods for studying pseudopod-driven locomotion of amoeboid cells; and software tools for kymograph-based analysis of cell contour dynamics. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Cutting-edge and practical, Cell Motility and Chemotaxis: Methods and Protocols is a valuable resource for researchers looking to expand their knowledge of motility-related research across different disciplines.
