Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Immunohistochemistry was performed as previously described.33 (link) Tongues were flash frozen in OCT (Tissue-Tek) in liquid nitrogen. Trigeminal ganglia were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 2 h, washed in PBS, and submerged in 30% sucrose. Sagittal tissue cryosections (25 μm) were prepared on slides. Sections were dried at 37°C for 1 h, and tongue sections were post-fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 15 min. Slides were washed in PBS and incubated in 5% normal goat serum (NGS) + PBST (PBS, 0.3% Triton X-100) at room temperature for 1 h. Sections were then incubated overnight in primary antibody mixed in NGS + PBST at 4°C. The next day, slides were washed three times in PBST and then incubated for 2 h in secondary antibody mixed in NGS + PBST. Following this, slides were washed five times in PBS, and then mounted in Fluoromount-G with DAPI (Southern Biotech).

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.
