Hi, I dont think glutaraldehyde is good for many antigens...though the brain
does become firmer...

If you put a little glutaraldehyde (0.25%) in the fixaitve you perfuse
with but not in the post fix solution the brain will be noticably firmer
and your antigen may survive.
Good luck!

Yes, definitely make sure to do the 20% sucrose overnight, even try 30%, or
grades going from 10%-20%-30%, switching to the next higher when the brain
becomes saturated enough to fall to the bottom of the container. We did
this in a previous lab with rat brains and it worked well.

Dear all
I am trying to use vibratome 50 µm thick sections for immunofluorescence
using Postnatal day 0 brains. The problem is that brains are very soft and
are usually destroyed upon handling and the agarose is separated form the
brain.
My used protocol was: perfusion with 4 % PFA for 3 min, fol
