The surname Murchison was first found in Inverness, where they held a family seat from very ancient times. They are believed to be descended from Murdoch, a natural son of Angus Mor of Islay of the Clan Donald.
Tunneling means that a wound has channels extending from the central injury into the surrounding tissue, such as muscle and skin. These tunnels inhibit the wound's healing rate, as the flesh is unable to maintain contact long enough for the mending process to initiate.
In a typical scratch wound healing assay, a âwound gapâ in a cell monolayer is created by scratching, and the âhealingâ of this gap by cell migration and growth towards the center of the gap is monitored and often quantitated.
