Setting Up a Flow Experiment

In order to set up an experiment correctly, you should first answer the following questions:

  1. Which kind of experiment is being planned: Adhesion assay or cell culture under flow conditions?
  2. What shear stress or shear rate will be applied?
  3. How long will the experiment last?
  4. Should it be a one-way setup or a circular setup?
  5. Are the reagents to be used expensive or inexpensive? Are they available in large volumes?
  6. Should the experiment be performed at 37 °C and with an atmosphere of 5% CO2?
  7. What other factors may be of importance in the experiment?
