SHIELD-processed and cleared organoids were stained using an adapted version of the eFLASH protocol27 (link),44 (link). We incubated organoids in eFLASH sample overnight at room temperature. Organoids were then placed in the SmartLabel system (LifeCanvas) with 1.4 mL sample buffer in the sample cup. For SCOUT pipeline, we added 6µL Syto16 (1 mM solution, ThermoFischer #S7578), 15 µg goat anti-SOX2 antibody (R&D Systems #AF2018), 10 µg Fab fragment anti-goat IgG Alexa Fluor 594 (Jackson ImmunoResearch #805-587-008), 30 µg rabbit anti-TBR1 Alexa Fluor 647 (Cell Signaling Technology #45664S). Additional antibodies used for whole organoid staining are anti-β3-tubulin (mouse monoclonal, Biolegend #657408), anti-MAP2 (mouse monoclonal, Biolegend #801803) and vimentin (rabbit monoclonal, Cell Signaling Technologies #45664). All antibodies used in this study are listed in Supplementary Table 1.
