Two-Photon Imaging of Retinal Specimens

Imaging was conducted on an Olympus FV1200MPE BASIC (BX-61WI) microscope equipped with a 25×, 1.05 NA water-immersion objective (XLPL25XWMP, Olympus) and an ultrafast pulsed laser (Mai Tai DeepSee HP, Spectra-Physics) tuned to 910 nm. Epifluorescence emission was separated into “green” and “red” channels with a 570nm dichroic mirror and a 525/50 bandpass filter (FF03-525/50-32, Semrock, green channel) and 575-630nm bandpass filter (BA575-630, Olympus, red channel), respectively. The microscope system was controlled by FluoView software (FV10-ASW v.4.1). Images of 256 × 128 pixels representing 256 × 128 μm on the retina were acquired at 15 Hz (zoom setting of 2).

Fluorescent Cell Targeting for Patch Recordings

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To target fluorescent cells for patch recording, two photon imaging was used (Olympus FV1200MPE BASIC (BX-61WI) microscope, 25×, 1.05 NA water-immersion objective (XLPL25XWMP, Olympus), an ultrafast pulsed laser (Mai Tai DeepSee HP, Spectra-Physics) tuned to 910 nm, and the imaging software Fluoview 4.1 (Olympus)). To acquire an image stack, RGCs were filled during electrophysiological recordings with Alexa hydrazide 488 or 594 (100 µM, Invitrogen), and were imaged following the recording, either using the two-photon or the single-photon (confocal) configuration of the two-photon microscope. Tissue in which fluorescent proteins were expressed was often fixed and immunostained (see above), and subsequently imaged on a confocal microscope (Olympus FV3000, UPlan Super Apochromat objectives, 30xS, 1.05 NA, or 60x2S, 1.3 NA) in the Leduc Imaging Facility, Brown University. Confocal and two-photon stacks were processed in Fiji (https://imagej.net/software/fiji), and collapsed using either maximum intensity or maximum standard deviation projections.

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.
