“…Cell confluency is measured in cell cultures to monitor the cell growth during a treatment and to modulate the subculture in 2D and 3D cell culture [16,17,18,19], to perform toxicity tests with chemical or drug treatment at a certain cell confluency % [20,21], to measure tumor cell proliferation in vitro [22], in drug development to find cytoplasm abnormalities discriminating between areas with cells (occupied by cells) and areas no cells (background) [3]. Cell confluency has been found to affect the expression of cell surface markers in studies on murine stem cells [23], to have effect on the cell stiffness [24], intracellular forces [25] and on the cell cycle [26], to have a critical impact in gene expression in adipose stromal cells [27].…”
