Isolating and re-growing living cells with laser microdissection
30 Jul 2020
This video demonstrates that the MMI CellCut, using the MMI LiveCell Chamber, can efficiently be employed to selectively isolate single living cells to initiate a homogeneous cell population. This study displays the semi-automated workflow to isolate single cells from the MMI Membrane Ring into a MMI Isolation Dish in a sterile and contamination-free way. During this process, the cells will fully remain in physiological cell culture conditions.
