The phrase "average cell speed" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to biology, physics, or technology when discussing the typical rate at which cells move or operate.
Example: "The average cell speed in the bloodstream is crucial for understanding how quickly nutrients are delivered to tissues."
Alternatives: "mean cell velocity" or "typical cell speed".
This compares with the cell motility rate on a flat PMMA surface where the average cell speed is around 0.012 μm/s.
Average cell speed on micro-grooves and ridges ranged from 0.015 μm/s (for 12 μm wide and 10 μm deep ridges) to 0.025 μm/s (for 20 μm wide and 10 μm deep ridges).
As the passage number increased, migratory capacity was enhanced, average cell speed, total distance and net distance travelled increased up to passage 8. Through the various assays, corroborative evidence pinpoints SMC at passage 7 as the transition point between the contractile and synthetic phenotypes, while passage 8 distinctly and consistently exhibited characteristics of synthetic phenotype.
Thus, our modeling is not confounded by changes in average cell speed over time.
WntA only treatment resulted in a decreased average cell speed of 1.65 nm/s (p = 0.00065).
Using Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV), we observed that average cell speed along the length of the strip decreases with increasing distance from the edges of the fibronectin strips (Fig. 2B).
A Microsoft Excel macro was used to calculate average cell speeds, as described below.
Calculation of individual cell speeds shows a significant difference between controls and mys hemocytes with the former reaching an average speed of 2.24±0.74 µm.min−1 whereas the latter had a residual calculated mean cell speed of 0.86±0.28 µm.min−1.
Migration speed (μm/minute) was calculated as the average of cell speeds (migration distance between the current frame and the previous frame divided by the time between sequential frames, 0.5 minutes) at each captured frame.
To investigate differences in global radial intercalation rates, we compared average motion directionality and cell speed during intercalation events between WT and MZ spg embryos.
Evidently, the hypergravity conditions make favorable more and longer flagella in order for the average cell to reach the optimum speed.
