Contains neuronal tracer, biotin dextran amine (BDA), and detection reagents, avidin-horseradish peroxidase (avidin-HRP) and diaminobenzedine (DAB) for subsequent visualization by light or electron microscopy
Supplier: Invitrogen™ N7167
DAB is mutagenic.
The neuronal tracer biotin dextran amine (BDA) is transported over long distances and fills fine neuronal processes bidirectionally, including boutons in the anterograde direction and dendritic structures in the retrograde direction.1-3 Days to weeks after BDA is injected into the desired region of the brain, the brain tissue is fixed, sectioned and incubated with avidin-horseradish peroxidase (avidin-HRP). Following a diaminobenzidine (DAB) reaction, the electron-dense DAB reaction product can be viewed by either light or electron microscopy.
