+Whole mount hindbrain immunostaining of 3MT containing cells.
Anti-3-Metoxytyramine antibody highlights the soma and projections of 3MT positive neurons in the hindbarin of mouse E14.5 embryo. Staining was performed using STAINperfect immunostaining kit A, following the protocol for whole mounts. Secondary antibody (goat anti-rabbit Alexa Fluor® 488) was used and picture was acquired by confocal imaging at high magnification.
DatasheetMSDS
The anti-3-Methoxytyramine (3-MT) antibody IS1019 is a rabbit polyclonal antibody validated for IF in mouse brain tissues (whole mounts, free-floating sections). In samples prepared with the STAINperfect immunostaining kit A, this antibody allows direct 3MT visualization in whole mounts, cell cultures and tissue sections.
