Hello all,
I received whole mount samples in 70% ethanol for paraffin processing.  The 
samples are snail embryos and the researcher already did in-situ on them.   
Because they are of varying ages, some of the shells will section without 
decal, but some will need it.  However, this step was not done before the ISH 
staining.  Does anyone know if decalcification can follow an ISH procedure?  I 
have searched a few protocols online, and each of them did the decal before 
hybridization.  I have not yet found one where the decal followed the 
procedure.   My plan is to start with one embryo and try it to see what 
happens.  Maybe the signal will remain, or maybe not.  Has anyone done it this 
way and know the answer before I try?
Thank you,
