Histological Verification of VTA and PPN
To determine the placement of the electrode in the VTA and cannula in the PPN, Nissl staining in select sections was performed from 4.52 to 5.60 mm and from 7.30 to 8.30 mm sections (the thickness of each section was 20 µm). The sections were mounted on gelatin-coated slides, stained with Cresyl violet perchlorate (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA), and dehydrated, and coverslips were placed on top using DPX for histology (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA). Micro photos of the sections were taken with simultaneous application of templates derived from the brain atlas of rats [28 ] using a magnifier (Stemi 508; Zeiss, Oberkochen, Germany) and camera (Axiocam 105 color; Zeiss) with integrated software (Zen Digital Imaging; Zeiss, Oberkochen, Germany).
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
