Histochemical Staining of Cell Monolayers for β-Galactosidase
Abstract
There are several methods for assaying the success of transient transfections. If a plasmid expressing Escherichia coli β-galactosidase was used, then this histochemical staining procedure is simple to perform and yields dependable results. The following method was designed for cells growing in 60-mm culture dishes.
