Method for assessing cell aging

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 (11) 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 11 and I2 (ΔD1) 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 (ΔD2). g) calculating the change between ΔD1 and ΔD2 to calculate a change mobility of the population as a whole.
