FISSEQ on Mouse Embryo Test 2
- Previous Test
- Try 2 samples: slide7 (16um thickness) and slide8 (20um thickness)
Embryo Section Info
- E7.5#3 slide1 is 16um (8 sections beginning of embryo + placenta) on the coverslip there is written A1, B1, C1, D1 to help for the orientation.
- E7.5#3 slide2 is 20um (8 sections beginning of embryo + placenta) on the coverslip there is written A2, B2, C2, D2 to help for the orientation.
- E7.5#3 slide3 is 25um (7 sections beginning of embryo + placenta) on the coverslip there is written A3, B3, C3, D3 to help for the orientation.
- E7.5#3 slide4 is 16um (7 sections mainly embryo) on the coverslip there is written A4, B4, C4, D4 to help for the orientation.
- Used: E7.5#3 slide5 is 20um (7 sections middle embryo) on the coverslip there is written A5, B5, C5, D5 to help for the orientation.
- Used: E7.5#3 slide6 is 25um (7 sections middle embryo) on the coverslip there is written A6, B6, C6, D6 to help for the orientation.
- E7.5#3 slide7 is 16um (10 sections middle embryo) on the coverslip there is written A7, B7, C7, D7 to help for the orientation.
- E7.5#3 slide8 is 20um (12 sections middle/end embryo) on the coverslip there is written A8, B8, C8, D8 to help for the orientation.
- E7.5#3 slide9 is 25um (6 sections end embryo+ adult liver) on the coverslip there is written A9, B9, C9, D9 to help for the orientation.
Protocol
- Previously did 0.01% Pepsin for 10min at RT and had too much tissue loss
- Try 0.01% Pepsin for 1-2min at 37C
Day 1
- Sterilize culture dishes and tweezers with EtOH, RNaseZap, and then rinse with nf-H2O
- Attach 22mm x 22mm glass coverslips (with mounted sections) to bottom of culture dishes with 18mm diameter hole (16mm adhesive hole)
- When peeling off scotch tape from coverslip (that was used to tape coverslips to glass slides), it peeled off a clear film as well...
- What kind of clear film would develop on coverslip at -80C?
- Use Double-sided tape: Adhesives Research IS-8458-19
- Wash tissue section twice using cold nf-SSPE for 5min each
- A8 leaked so used 200 Gap filling glue
- Add 0.25% TX-100 in nf-2XSSPE for 5min at RT
- Wash with cold nf-H2O twice
- Add 200ul 0.01% pepsin in 0.01N HCl (2ul 1%Pepsin + 10ul 2N HCl + 188ul H2O) for 1min at 37C
- Wash with 2ml of cold nf-PBS three times
- Prepare 2X Reverse Transcription Mix on ice
