Rapid Mounting of Zebrafish Larvae for Brain Imaging.
Brain imaging requires mounting of zebrafish larvae in a vertical position, but anesthetized or fixed larvae tend to fall on their sides without external support. Current solution is to manually hold individual larva until liquid agarose solidifies, which is time consuming, labor intensive, and unfriendly to beginners. We developed a method to form larva-shaped slots in agarose gel using a computer numerical controlled manufactured mold. Each slot nearly perfectly fits a larva in its upright position, and larvae can be easily mounted by inserting into the slots. On average, each larva can be mounted in <1 min using this method.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
