In Utero Electroporation

For successful In Utero Electroporation (IUE) transfection efficiency, the delivery of a controlled electric current is one of key critical success factors.

As evident from the review by H Tabata and K Nakajima in their book ‘Electroporation and Sonoporation in Developmental Biology’, (Chapter 14, In Utero Electroporation: Assay System for Migration of Cerebral Cortical Neurons, p 143 – 152), the optimal current for most IUEs is 40-60mA.

For the following reasons:
–    the electric impedance (resistance) for IUE is about 300-500 ohms in general
–    but the impedance is not so stable because the application is in vivo
–    and the output current does not exactly reflect Ohm’s law
We recommend that you set a 30-35V to achieve a 40-60mA output when using the CUY21SC Electroporation System.

Electrode Recommendation:

With respect to in utero Electroporation, we recommend the following:

–          CUY650P3 , CUY650P2 and CUY650P1 (If the mouse embryo is E10 –  E12.5)

–          CUY650P5 (If the mouse embryo is E13 or later)

With the CUY650P1 electrode, the transfection site could be smaller.

For information, the embryos are young (such as E10 or E11) light can be helpful to see inside the uterine wall.  But it is important that the light temperature must not be hot.

Protocol Recommendation:
