in situ hybridisation on cell cultures

[Dr. M.A.N. Rattray]

We are trying to do in situ hybridisation using 35-S riboprobes on
cell cultures.  These cultures have been grown on glass coverslips.
We intend to use liquid emulsion autoradiography - a method we
routinely use for tissue sections.

We have a problem with the coverslips - when we glue them to microscope
slides, they drop off: either during incubations or during the washes.

Does anyone have any suggestions or pertinent references.

Thanks in advance
