Immunodetection of Neurofilaments in E10.5 Embryos

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
E10.5 embryos were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde in PBS at 4°C, rinsed in PBS, then permeabilized in PBS with 0.5% Triton X-100 for 24 h at 4°C. Neurofilament immunodetection was performed as previously described (Ray et al., 2020 (link)). Primary anti-neurofilament antibody (Developmental Studies Hybridoma Bank, 2H3) was used at a 1:20 dilution, and anti-mouse horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated secondary antibody (Jackson ImmunoResearch, 115-035-003) was used at 1:1000 dilution. Signal was developed using an ImmPACT DAB Substrate Kit (Vector Laboratories, SK-4105). Photographs were taken using a Nikon SMZ-U dissecting scope fitted with a Jenoptik ProgRes C5 camera.

Skeletal Staining and Clearing

E14.5, E16.5, E17.5, E18.5, and P0 embryos were skinned, eviscerated, and fixed in 95% ethanol overnight. Staining was performed with Alcian blue/Alizarin red (0.015% Alcian blue, 0.005% Alizarin red, 5% glacial acetic acid, 70% ethanol) overnight at 37°C. Skeletons were subsequently cleared in 1% KOH for 24hrs then transferred through a glycerol:KOH series of increasing glycerol concentration and decreasing KOH concentration. Skeletons were photographed in 80% glycerol using a Nikon SMZ-U dissecting scope fitted with a Jenoptik ProgRes C5 camera. Images of full P0 skeletons were merged using the Adobe Photoshop Photomerge function.

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.
