Project GRFT gene gun at Counter Culture labs

 






At Counter Culture labs, we have set up our first gene gun.  It was designed and built by physicist and inventor David Johnson PhD.  In the video he fires the first shot from the gene gun in the new lab environment.  DNA plasmid coated Au microparticles are shot into a rice callus which will then be incubated at 25C.  Compressed Helium gas provides the force to propel the particles into the plant cells.
