Automated single cell tracking using the Operetta High Content Imaging System

A549 non-small cell lung cancer cells were used to study chemokinesis (Caino et al., 2012)Chemokinesis = non-oriented increased migration after stimulationCells were seeded w/o serum onto collagen-coated 384 CellCarrier™ microplatesLive-cell imaging using a TCO-equipped Operetta® High Content Imaging SystemImaging every 5-10 mins for up to 6 hrs using a 10x objective and digital phase imaging

Digital phase imaging is non-toxic

Object Tracking Workflow

Segment images Track objectsAcquire time series

Building block Track Objects of Harmony® Imaging and Analysis Software was used to tracks cells based on overlap between adjacent time points

A549 migration is stimulated by EGF-treatment

Observed track length increases after EGF stimulation
