FISH 70% Formamdide[edit]
Prepared 5 dishes using following protocol.
- Sample A** has 80/20 cells/RPMI
- Samples A,B,C,D have 20/80 cells/RPMI
Slide Preparation[edit]
- Prepare a cell suspension of 500 000-2 000 000 cells/mL in RPMI
- Add 20 uL of cell suspension per dish to the cener; add 80 uL RPMI
- Allow cells to adhere for 6 hours at 37 C
- Rinse slides briefly in 1X PBS
- Fix slides for 5-15 minutes in 4% (v/v) paraformaldehyde in 1X PBS
- Rinse briefly in 1X PBS
- Incubate for 5 minutes in 1 mL of 2X SSCT
- Incubate for 5 minutes in 1 mL of 2X SSCT + 50% (v/v) formamide
- Remove media and add 1 mL of 2X SSCT + 50% (v/v) formamide for storage at 4C; wrap with parafilm
- Slides are typically best used within 1-2 weeks of creation
