More about application:
Laser capture microdissection can be used to collect regions of interest down to single cells and chromosomes from a tissue section (frozen or paraffin) or a cell culture.
It has been used commonly for the following investigations:
  • Absolute identification of mutations within cells of interest
  • Gene expression profiling of a specific cell type within a tissue
  • Identification of cell proteins during a specific physiological event
  • Isolation and further cultivation of transgenic cells from a culture
