At 14 DIV, cell cultures were fixed for 15 minutes with 4% paraformaldehyde (wt/vol) in PBS, permeabilized for 10 minutes with 0.2% saponin (wt/vol), and blocked for 60 minutes with 10% goat serum (vol/vol, Abcam) plus 0.1% Tween-20 (vol/vol). Coverslips were then incubated with primary antibodies (anti-GFP: Abcam, 1:1000, chicken; anti-MAP2: EMD, 1:1000, mouse) at room temperature for one hour. Samples were washed three times with 0.02% saponin (wt/vol) in PBS and labeled with Alexa Fluor 488-tagged anti-chicken and Alexa Fluor 546-tagged anti-mouse IgG for 1 hour at room temperature (Invitrogen, 1:400 dilution). Samples were again washed three times and mounted in Fluoromount G mounting medium (SouthernBiotech). Images were obtained using an FV1000 laser-scanning confocal microscope (Olympus) with FV10-ASW 3.1 acquisition software, using a 20x/1.0 NA water objective, under identical laser and gain settings. Images were analyzed using ImageJ (NIH).

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.
