Cell locomotion and chemotaxis are usually assayed by the Boyden chamber technique, in which the response is measured by microscopical counting of the cells migrated into a micropore filter. We report a simplified Boyden chamber method which utilizes myeloperoxidase (MPO) specific to neutrophilic an
## Abstract A method is presented which allows the quantification of the effects of chemotactic factors on polymorphonuclear leukocytes on the basis of a sensitive ATP measurement using bioluminescence. The assay measures those cells which have migrated through a commercial 3 ΞΌm filter system (Tran
