Protocol

Day 1

  1. Prepare plastic culture dish with 12x17mm hole, tweezers, large plastic dish, and 50C hot plate
    • EtOH and UV sterilize
  2. Made 4% PFA in 1X PBS
    • 10ml 16% PFA + 4ml 10X PBS + 26ml H2O
  3. Take out brain section from -80C and dry on 50C hot plate for 3min
  4. Submerge coverslip in 5ml 4% PFA in petri dish for 15min at 37C
  5. Wash twice with cold 1X SSPE by submerging
  6. Add 0.25% TX-100 in 2XSSPE and incubate 10min at RT
  7. Wash with cold nf-H2O three times and check for degradation
  8. Add 0.01% Pepsin in 0.1N HCl and incubate for 90sec at 37C
    • 2ul 1%Pepsin + 10ul 2N HCl + 188ul H2O
  9. Wash with nf-1X PBS three times and check for degradation
    • First try ALL the tissue sloughed off by the end of 3rd wash
  10. Aspirate any liquid and place a glass slide with 50um spacer over the coverslip with tissue
    • Secure in plastic jig
  11. Add 50ul gel casting mix filtered and degassed
  12. Seal in plastic bag and vacuum out air before filling with argon
  13. Let sit at RT for 30min
  14. Aspirate non-polymerized gel and wash once with 1X PBS
  15. Attach coverslip to bottom of petri dish
  16. Aspirate non-polymerized gel and wash once with 1X PBS
  17. Prepare SplintR Mix
    • Preheat Padlock Probes then snap cool
