The efficiency of neuronal migration to cobalt iron and permalloy magnetic actuators. A-D Magnetic simulations of the induced magnetic flux density (Bnorm) at 2 μm above the magnet. Scale units are in Tesla. E-L Phase images of magnetized cells atop permalloy or CoFe/Pd magnetic patterns. M The number of occupied magnet bars and (N) the number of cells that reached the magnetic pattern. O Percentage of cells that reached the magnetic patterns. Dashed line represents the percentage of cells should reach the magnetic pattern randomly, regardless of the magnetic effect. The average quantification is presented in the plots (mean ± STDEV). There were significant differences in some of the experiments. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001
