Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
Collagenase (Type C, animal-free) can be used to isolate and prepare single-cell suspensions from various tissues for establishing primary cell culture systems. The suitability of each batch of enzyme for dissociating specific tissues must be verified experimentally[1].

Endothelial Tube Formation Assay
Endothelial tube formation assay evaluates the ability of endothelial cells to attach, migrate, align, and organize into capillary-like networks when cultured on gelled basement membrane extract or Matrigel; the readout is the morphology and quantity of tube-like networks, which reflects an in vitro endothelial morphogenesis step related to angiogenesis. Basement membrane extract/Matrigel provides laminin-rich extracellular matrix cues that support endothelial differentiation into capillary-like structures, but it can contain biologically active growth factors, so growth-factor-reduced matrix is preferred when testing defined angiogenic stimulators or inhibitors.
