Quantifying Intestinal Lipid Droplets and Secretion
Corresponding Organization :
Other organizations : MiraCosta College, Scripps Research Institute
Protocol cited in 2 other protocols
Variable analysis
- Staining with Oil Red O
- Fluorescence imaging of atgl-1::GFP reporter
- Fluorescence imaging of FLP-7 secretion reporter
- Lipid droplet staining intensity in the first four pairs of intestinal cells
- Fluorescence intensity of atgl-1::GFP in the second and third pairs of intestinal cells
- MCherry fluorescence intensity in the first pair of coelomocytes, normalized to coelomocyte surface area
- Use of a x10 objective for Oil Red O and atgl-1::GFP imaging
- Use of a x20 objective for FLP-7 secretion reporter imaging
- Quantification of approximately 15-20 animals per condition within each experiment
- Use of ImageJ software for image quantification

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.
