[Xenopus] Query about Microinjector for embryo injections

Hi Pai,

We purchased the PM1000 from MicroData Instruments 3 years ago for ~$5000.  It has all of the features of the PLI-100’s that we’ve used for many years but I find it a bit more finicky to get used to.  Old dog, new tricks most likely.

Best,
Jan

Hi Folks,

We need to buy microinjectors for Xenopus embryo injections. The PLI-100 from Harvard Apparatus/Warner Instruments is no longer manufactured.

What microinjector do folks use for microinjection these days?

Any help or feedback on this would be really appreciated.

Thank you

Pai
