Chicken Embryo Gene Delivery by Electroporation
Description
Chicken embryo gene delivery by electroporation lets researchers add genetic material to cells inside a developing egg. The method is used in biomedical research to change gene expression in early developing chicks kept within their eggshells. It gives scientists a way to study how genes act during development.

Transcript
Electroporation is a technique used to introduce foreign genetic material into cells. Electroporation of chick embryos inside the egg, or in ovo electroporation, is a valuable tool for developmental biologists because the delivery of genetic material can be localized to specific tissues and specific developmental tim...
