Abstract

A device with a high degree of precision is described for the transplantation of single identified cells in specified regions of the host brain. It consists of two co-centric micropipettes where the inner pipette, functioning as a plunger, is used to drive the cells contained near the tip of the outer pipette into the host. The use of a pre-calibrated micrometer to control the movement of the inner pipette obviates the need of visual monitoring for successful transplantation.
