Individual BHK-21 (Baby Hamster Kidney-21} cells growing on 25 mm photo-etched alpha-numeric glass coverslips (Belico Co.) are identified by phase contrast microscopy and photographed. (Saredi, Howard and Compton, 1995), This method should work for other cell lines, but likely will require some empirical adjustment of the times, concentrations, and pH.
