Does anyone have a working protocol for FISH for telomere probe of the cells growing on silicone membrane?

16 April 2014 1 8K Report

I successfully did FISH for cells growing on cover slip, but the same protocol is not working for cells growing on silicone membrane. Do I need to change the hybridization time, temp or denaturation time temp due to the silicone membrane?

How to scrape off the surface layer of compound sputtering targets as with multiple usage top layer's stoichiometry changes from the original target?

I am experiencing this for the Bi2Se3 sputtering target. Initially, even if the target was 2:3 in Bi : Se, with a few sputtering runs, due to the high escaping tendency of selenium, the top layer...

How can we synthetically stimulate CAR-T cells without the use of target cells in a co-culture?

Has anyone looked into this aspect where you can replace target cancerous cells from the co- culture but at the same time use any stimulus to activate CAR-T cells in a cell-based IFNg assay ?

Is it safe to polish the surface of a Bismuth Selenide (Bi2Se3) sputtering target with sand paper/emery paper?

The surface of the target may have gathered some coating at places during deposition. These spots seem to be little less conducting compared to the other fresh parts of the target. Will it be safe...

Is there any way to fix a damaged sputtering target by grinding it in powder form again and pressing into a pellet, sintering it afterwards?

The target is damaged in a way that it has been non-uniformly sputtered from a particular spot more than the other area, thus causing a huge bump-like structure and cavity in that spot.
