Plating Cells for Microinjection

David A. Dean

This protocol was adapted from "Gene Delivery by Direct Injection and Facilitation of Expression by Mechanical Stretch," Chapter 4, in Live Cell Imaging (eds. Goldman and Spector). Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, NY, USA, 2005.


INTRODUCTION

This protocol describes a method for plating cells for microinjection onto etched coverslips. The coverslips for microinjection must be marked so that microinjected cells can be identified at time points after injection. A procedure for etching coverslips is given below; alternatively, pre-etched coverslips can be purchased at slightly higher cost.
