Quantitative RT-PCR Amplification of RNA in Single Mouse Oocytes and Preimplantation Embryos

We describe a simple whole-cell method for quantitative reverse transcription (RT) PCR amplification of RNA that consistently allows the analysis of trace amounts of RNA, such as those carried by a fraction of a single mouse oocyte or preimplantation embryo, without organic extraction. The method is...
