This superb collection of well-tested protocols for the electroporation of proteins and DNA into insect, fish, and mammalian cells also includes proven animal cell electrofusion techniques for studies of somatic cell genetics and development, and for generating monoclonal antibodies. It is distinguished by its coverage of important model cell types from many organisms and tissue types and its detailed instructions for the growth and preparation of specific cells to achieve optimum transfection. Its extensive reference lists, citations of alternative transfer methods, advice on pitfalls to avoid, and descriptions of expected results ensure readily reproducible results even for beginners.
