TY - JOUR A1 - Koonce, Michael A1 - Tikhonenko, Irina A1 - Gräf, Ralph T1 - Dictyostelium cell fixation BT - two simple tricks JF - Methods and protocols N2 - We share two simple modifications to enhance the fixation and imaging of relatively small, motile, and rounded model cells. These include cell centrifugation and the addition of trace amounts of glutaraldehyde to existing fixation methods. Though they need to be carefully considered in each context, they have been useful to our studies of the spatial relationships of the microtubule cytoskeletal system.
