We obtained the depth profiles (Fig. 2, B and C) of fluorescence intensity of acceptor dye emission (580±10nm) on the adaxial and abaxial leaf sides of maize leaves with a laser scanning confocal microscope (Zeiss LSM880). An intact maize leaf infiltrated with AquaDust was mounted on a glass slide using a double-sided tape, placed on Zeiss LSM880 Confocal Upright Microscope, and imaged using W Plan-Apochromat 20×/1.0 water immersion objective and a 561nm excitation laser line. These depth profiles were obtained by constructing orthogonal sections and plotting intensity as a function of depth in these orthogonal sections using ZEN software and MATLAB. See Supplementary Methods S4 for details on sample preparation for cryogenic scanning electron micrographs in Fig. 2A.

Laser-Induced Thrombosis Visualization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
In the experiments involving laser-induced thrombosis and visualization of the fibrin net, we used specific equipment. The setup included a fixed-stage microscope, the Zeiss Axio Examiner Z1 (Carl Zeiss Microscopy GmbH, Oberkochen, Germany). Additionally, we utilized a confocal scanner unit (CSU-X1, Yokogawa Electric Corporation, Tokyo, Japan). The microscope was equipped with a W Plan-Apochromat 20×/1.0 water immersion objective (Carl Zeiss Microscopy GmbH, Oberkochen, Germany). For visualization purposes, we employed a confocal microscopy system to observe the thrombi formed in the flow chamber and the fibrin net in the clots. SlideBook 6.0 (Intelligent Imaging Innovations, Inc., Denver, CO, USA) was used to analyze the images from confocal microscopy.

Clot Structure Imaging via Flow Chamber

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For flow chamber experiments and clot structure imaging we used fixed-stage microscope Zeiss Axio Examiner Z.1 (Carl Zeiss Microscopy GmbH, Germany) equipped with W Plan-Apochromat 20 × /1.0 water immersion objective (Carl Zeiss Microscopy GmbH, Germany). During the experiment AF488-fibrinogen, DiO were excited by 488 nm laser (LaserStack 488 nm, 3iL33, Intelligent Imaging Innovations, Inc., United States) while AF647-annexin V were excited by 640 nm laser from the same manufacturer. Pictures were recorded with Confocal Scanner Unit CSU-X1 (Yokogawa Electric Corporation, Japan) in one focal plane (2D imaging). Collected images were analyzed using SlideBook 6 (Intelligent Imaging Innovations, Inc., United States).

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.
