Tissue Sectioning Solutions for In-Situ Hybridization

Achieve precise tissue sections for in-situ hybridization with Precisionary Instruments’ vibratomes, microtomes, and cryostats.

Optimize In-Situ Hybridization with High-Quality Tissue Sections

In-situ hybridization (ISH) uses nucleic acid probes to detect specific DNA or RNA sequences in cells and tissues, making it a crucial technique in genetics and molecular biology. To effectively investigate gene expression patterns and identify genetic abnormalities, thin, flat tissue sections are essential for optimal probe hybridization. Precisionary Instruments’ vibratomes, microtomes, and cryostats produce consistent, reliable tissue sections that ensure accurate localization of nucleic acid sequences. Our products help researchers achieve high-quality results in ISH studies, enabling precise detection and analysis of gene expression and mutations.

Genetic Manipulation of the Mouse Developing Hypothalamus Through In-utero Electroporation

Researchers have used the Compresstome® in their procedure to section mouse embryo hypothalamus that has been injected with DNA and electroporated. This procedure demonstrates how it is possible to transfect nuclei in the hypothalamus region which are less accessible than those in superficial regions. Following this procedure additional experiments can be performed such as immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization.

Lipophilic dye, in situ Hybridization, Immunohistochemistry, and Histology
