The HaCat cells were transported to the NRI at 11.00am stated scanning by 11.30am.
The mica substrate was completed coated with cells and prepared to be place in the Atomic force microscope . An area of 30microns was taken for the first series to be scanned. A series of images were taken, each image takes 10minutes to scan.
The new sterile substrates were taken to SymbioticA to be sterilised. The substrates were large enough to be completely sealed by the rubber ring that makes the sample watertight for the Atomic Force Microscope.
.
Two glass substrates are being autoclaving to prepare them for the cells by which them. They need to be then coated with extra cellular matrix so the cells can adhere to the substrates.
The new skin cell line are called HaCat
Preparing for HaCat cells to be culture on them for scanning by an Atomic Force Microscope.
