Abstract

See full text

An apparatus for acceleration of carrier particles into a target organism which may be used for rapid, sequential particle acceleration procedures comprises a holder for removable mounting cartridges. A first removable mounting cartridge detachably holds a carrier sheet coated with carrier particles which have themselves been coated with biological material. A second removable mounting cartridge comprises a retaining screen. The mounting cartridges may be inserted into the holder before particle acceleration and replaced quickly afterwards, thereby readying the apparatus for another particle acceleration. Convenient replacement of these consumable items eliminates the need to disassemble the apparatus between each particle acceleration procedure.
