Mice were anesthetized with Avertin (250 mg/kg body weight) and transcardially perfused with 4% formaldehyde (EMS 15713) in 1x PBS, pH 7.6. The brains were dissected, post-fixed for 2 hours at room temperature and processed through 10% sucrose in PBS overnight followed by 30% sucrose in PBS until they sink. These cryoprotected brains were embedded in 2% gelatin (Sigma G2500), 0.9% NaCl in a metal mold, quickly frozen on a metal block cooled with liquid nitrogen, sectioned with Leica CM1900 at 20 μm thickness and mounted on SuperFrost Gold Plus microscopy slides (Fisher Scientific). The sections were incubated with primary antibodies, chicken anti-GFP (Aves GFP-1020), rabbit anti-RFP (Rockland 600-401-379) and mouse anti-Cre Recombinase, Clone 2D8 (Millipore MAB3120), diluted in Cyto-Q Immuno Diluent and Block (Innovex Biosciences).

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.
