0.1n iodine solution

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States

0.1N iodine solution is a laboratory reagent used for various titration and analysis procedures. It is a standardized aqueous solution containing 0.1 moles of iodine per liter. The solution's core function is to serve as a titrant or indicator in chemical reactions and analyses that require precise iodometric determinations.

Each E15.5 embryo was subjected to hydrogel stabilization2 (link). Briefly, the embryo was incubated in 20 mL hydrogel solution containing a mixture of ice-cold 4% (wt) PFA, 4% (wt/vol) acrylamide (Bio-Rad, Mississauga, ON, Canada), 0.05% (wt/vol) bis-acrylamide (Bio-Rad, Mississauga, ON, Canada), 0.25% VA044 Initiator (Wako Chemicals USA, Inc., Richmond, VA, USA), 0.05% (wt/vol) saponin (Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO, USA) and PBS at 4°C for 3 days. After incubation, the tube containing the embryo was placed in a dessication chamber where air in the tube was replaced with nitrogen gas. The tube was placed in a 37°C water bath for 3 hours. Lastly, the samples were separated from the encasing gel and place into iodine solution. Each E15.5 mouse embryo was stained with 50 mL of 0.1N iodine solution (Sigma-Aldrich) for 24 hours. The iodine-stained embryo was then embedded in agarose within an 11-mm centrifuge tube and positioned in the micro-CT scanner for imaging.

Micro-CT Analysis of Mouse Penises

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Penises were dissected from C57BL6/J adult wild-type mice and fixed overnight in 10% formalin. The fixed tissue was washed twice with 70% ethanol, followed by dehydration and storage in 70% ethanol. 24 hours before micro-CT scanning, iodine staining was achieved by submerging the samples in a 0.1 N iodine solution (Sigma-Aldrich, St Louis, MO, USA) on a shaker at 4°C. Before scanning, the samples were rinsed with 1 × phosphate buffered saline and suspended in a sample tube with 1% agarose.

Mouse Embryo Micro-CT Imaging

Embryos were subjected to hydrogel stabilization before imaging.21 Briefly, each embryo was placed in 20 mL hydrogel solution: ice-cold 4% paraformaldehyde (wt), 0.05% (wt/vol) bis-acrylamide (Bio-Rad, Mississauga, ON, Canada), 0.25% VA044 Initiator (Wako Chemicals USA, Inc., Richmond, VA, USA), 0.05% (wt/vol) saponin (Sigma–Aldrich, St Louis, MO, USA) and PBS at 4 °C for 3 days, then placed in a desiccation chamber where air was replaced with nitrogen gas, followed by placement in a 37 °C water bath for 3 h. The sample was then separated from the encasing gel and placed into 50 mL of 0.1 N iodine solution (Sigma–Aldrich) for 24 h, washed in PBS for 1 h, and embedded in 1% agarose prior to imaging.
Three-dimensional data sets were acquired for mouse embryos using a Bruker Skyscan 1272 micro-CT scanner (Bruker Skyscan, Antwerp, Belgium), with the X-ray source at 100 kV and 100 μA. The specimen was rotated 360° in 0.3° increments, generating 1200 views that were reconstructed into data blocks with a 11-μm voxel size. The 3D video models for the embryos were created using the Amira Software.

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.
