Anti-Iba1 ab178846 was used with Tissue clearing kit – CUBIC (ab316246) and 3D Tissue Staining Kit – CUBIC (ab316248) to penetrate stain and clear a whole mouse brain.

Learn more about tissue clearing kits reagents and protocols designed to make it easier to stain whole brains and get more data from each valuable tissue sample.

For a whole mouse brain we recommend starting with 3.5 ug of ab178846 and using a Fab fragment secondary antibody with 2.34 µg to create an antibody complex before 3D staining (see protocol for details). Additive A was used during the staining process.

The sample was imaged using a light-sheet microscope.

For a whole mouse brain we recommend starting with 10 ug of ab177487 and using a Fab fragment secondary antibody with 6.67 µg to create an antibody complex before 3D staining (see protocol for details). Additive A was used during the staining process.

The sample was imaged using a light-sheet microscope.

Product details

Tissue Clearing Kit – CUBIC (ab316246) enables the easy set-up of rapid tissue clearing for 3D tissue imaging using simple protocols and standard laboratory equipment.

Together with the 3D Tissue Staining Kit – CUBIC (ab316248) we provide a versatile tissue clearing and 3D tissue staining method that allows the observation of all cells in organs and the body. The kits are designed for safe and easy use in the lab.

  • Comes with water-soluble clearing reagents that achieve transparency of organs and the whole body
  • Can be performed with only general lab equipment and does not require special dedicated equipment such as an electrophoresis apparatus.
  • Uses light-sheet microscopes (LSFM) and confocal laser scanning microscopes to allow imaging of the whole 3D organ with a resolution to the cellular level.

The provided protocol solves issues pertaining to safety, waste processing, microscope compatibility, fluorescent protein signal retainability, etc.

To learn more about tissue clearing, and tissue clearing methods (including for 3D cell cultures), please review our guide to tissue clearing.

These tissue clearing reagents are using CUBIC technology.
