Protocols

Part 1: Design experiment to optimize comet chip loading

You will design two experiments that test variables associated with loading cells into the microwells of your comet chip. In the first experiment you will consider the role of cell number. Specifically, how many cells should be added to each well to ensure the majority of the microwells are loaded? In addition, how many cells should be loaded into each microwell? The second experiment will interrogate the length of time needed for loading.
