To localize and quantify SLC26A3 expression paraffin fixed human and mouse colon tissue was processed for microscopy as described18 (link). Both human and mouse samples were stained with rabbit polyclonal anti-SLC26A3 ab244452 (Abcam) followed by Alexa Fluor 488 anti-rabbit secondary Ab (Invitrogen) and counter stained with ProLong Gold Antifade with DAPI (Thermo Scientific).

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.
