- 08:34Results: The VDC Model Facilitates Greater Numbers of Bacterial-IEC Interactions and Invasions than Standard Cell Culture Assay Conditions
- 10:07Conclusion
Performing cell culture assays for investigating bacterial adhesion and invasion under aerobic conditions is usually unrepresentative of the in vivo environment. A Vertical Diffusion Chamber model allows study of interactions of the human pathogen Campylobacter jejuni with intestinal epithelial cells under more in vivo-like conditions, resulting in enhanced bacterial invasion.
