[Xenopus] Query about Microinjector for embryo injections

[Michael Klymkowsky]

After I retired last year, I believe some people "liberated" my equipment!

Good luck

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

You don't often get email from vaibhav.pai at tufts.edu. Learn why this is important<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentification__;!!Dq0X2DkFhyF93HkjWTBQKhk!S1Giwl6Iu6uba0ddn6e3UQ5hCIBC6DbzY6r2ukcB6NqmSTkvXR04fvvl2ZPPn596-4GcKZh7kAIi1HEjXNtDXi8qrxvBXwKblig$>
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
