Abstract
Staining of mouse brain sections with immunofluroescent visualization.
Wash freshly sectioned slices of tissue 2-3 times with 1X PBS to remove OCT.
Block with 5% Normal donkey/Goat serum in 0.3% TRITON X-100 in 1X PBS for Duration01:00:00 at TemperatureRoom temperature .

1h
Wash sections 5 times in 1X PBS.
Following washes, transfer sections to a primary antibody solution containing a mix of primary antibody diluted in 0.3% TRITON X-100 in 1X PBS with 1% Normal Donkey/Goat serum DurationOvernight at Temperature4 °C .

1h
The following day, wash sections 5 times in 1X PBS.
Transfer sections to secondary solution containing the adequate secondary antibody diluted in 0.3% TRITON X-100 in 1X PBS with 1% Normal Donkey/Goat serum for Duration04:00:00 atTemperatureRoom temperature .

4h
Wash sections 3 times in 1X PBS.
Mount sections on microscope slides with medium (Vectashield with 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI), H-1800-10).
