ABSTRACT
Craniofacial defects, such as cleft palate, are prevalent congenital malformations that present an interesting research challenge due to the complex and multifactorial nature of their etiology. In vitro modeling of craniofacial morphogenesis provides valuable insight into the developmental processes critical to the presentation of these conditions. One such technique, termed a submerged or free-floating organ culture, allows culturing and observation of isolated craniofacial tissue without the need for specialized supporting equipment. Outlined here is a detailed protocol for isolating and culturing maxillary and palatal tissue as a midfacial tissue section. This protocol has been modified from a previously established technique to accommodate culturing tissue from developmental time-points as early as embryonic day 10.5. This allows for greater control over genotypic variance within litters and provides a simplified, accessible methodology.
