  • Method for assessing cell aging
    Patent number: 9734575
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for determining a change in the mobility of a population of organisms over time, said method comprising: a) obtaining a first image (I1) of the population at a first time point (T1) b) obtaining a second image (I2) of the population at a second time point (T2) c) calculating the absolute differences between I1 and I2 (?D1) d) obtaining a third image (I3) of the population at a third time point (T3) e) obtaining a fourth image (I4) of the population at a fourth time point (T4) f) calculating the absolute differences between I3 and I4 (?D2). g) calculating the change between ?D1 and ?D2 to calculate a change mobility of the population as a whole.
