Can we Stretch Cells Using the Strex Cell Stretch Device Undergoing Gene Transfer?
Purpose
Gene transfer can be done while stretching, but it comes with some drawbacks.

You can conduct gene transfer directly on stretch chambers. However, the transfer work damages cells so that it becomes difficult to snap images of high quality. We recommend that you conduct the transfer on cells in dishes prior to be placed on the Strex stretch chamber.
