Proliferation Assay- Bet you can't proliferate like me.


Another assay we completed was the proliferation assay. This is exactly what it sounds like: an assay that tests rapid reproduction of the cells. We completed this experiment to determine if the type of radiation treatment had an effect on the proliferation of the cells.

Here are the results:

























If you looked at these graphs and thought they all look the same, then ding ding ding. You are correct-ish. The results indicated that there is no difference in proliferation between the single dose and fractionated dose treatments in any of the cell lines.

Congrats! We have collected and analyszed all of the data.

YAYAY! We're free, free at last.

Not quite! We still have to figure out what it all means, but for this you.ll have to stay tuned.
