+D-Serine imaging in adult mouse frontal cortex
Using STAINperfect immunostaining kit A and following protocol developped for tissu sections, the anti-D-Serine rabbit polyclonal antibody (Ref: IS1004) revealed the presence of D-Serine postive cells within mouse frontal cortex with a cytoplasmic pattern. The staining was revealed using Alexa Fluor® 488-conjugated secondary antibody and image obtained using confocal imaging.
DatasheetMSDS
The anti-D-Serine antibody IS1004 was validated for immunofluorescence in mouse brain tissues, in combination with the STAINperfect immunostaining kit A. Following the same staining procedure, this rabbit polyclonal antibody can be used to visualize D-Serine in whole mounts, cell cultures, and tissue sections (IF or IHC).
