Summary

Automatic Translation

This protocol describes applications of sample immobilization using Fibrin clots, limiting drifting, and allowing the addition and washout of reagents during live imaging. Samples are transferred to a drop of Fibrinogen containing culture medium on the surface of a coverslip, after which polymerization is induced by adding thrombin.
