In situ Novocrania and Terebratalia
In situ using Nano longer probes to try to get a better signal to ratio. Also fgf8 probe, important for the brain boundary. I also need better hedgehog pictures, so I’m repeating the in situ with a new probe in Ttra and also trying to get a good early gastrula, bilateral gastrula e late larvae of engrailed.
| Nano wnt5 | Nano smo2 | Nano fgf8 | Nano ptc1 |
| Ttra hh | Ttra en late blastula / early gastrula | Ttra en bilateral gastrula / late larva |
10 min ProtK for all. Incubated at 65 °C at 2000.

Diluted probes to 1 ng/µL and added at 0800.

First day of washes. Added anti-dig-ap at 1600.
03/02/2015
Washed off antibody with 3x 5min followed by 4x 15 min and 5x 30 min. Developed with nbt/bcip at 1600. All wells showed good signal/noise ratio. The worst is wnt5, but it is still better than the other in situ. I exchanged the AP for all wells at 1930 and stopped all except hedgehog and en bilateral (exchanged AP).

Exchanged the AP for the two Terebratalia wells, I’ll let them develop longer.
Stopped at 1500 and did ethanol washes. Let overnight in 70% glycerol.
