| 1. | A gene gun is used for delivery of exogenous DNA to cells.
|
| 2. | Different disc strengths can be available for some gene gun models.
|
| 3. | Nabel said he is using the gene gun in several experiments.
|
| 4. | Step 1 The gene gun apparatus is ready to fire.
|
| 5. | Other methods include a " gene gun " or " biolistic particle delivery system ".
|
| 6. | Some models of gene gun also use a rupture disc, but not as a safety device.
|
| 7. | The gene gun has become a common tool for labeling subsets of cells in cultured tissue.
|
| 8. | Gene guns can be used effectively on most cells but are mainly used on plant cells.
|
| 9. | Gene gun bombardment has also been used to transform " Caenorhabditis elegans ", as an alternative to microinjection.
|
| 10. | Another approach is called " microprojectile bombardment " or " biolistics, " which employs a gas-powered " gene gun ."
