In this experiment, a mouse is injected in its tail vein with Rhodamine B isothiocyanate–dextran that can stain blood vessels. After the liver is exposed and fixed, a specific part of the liver can be selected to observe the deep tissue in the living body using multiphoton microscopy.
This protocol proposes holistic laboratory procedures required to detect single nucleotide polymorphisms in gastric cancer samples based on an ion semiconductor sequencing platform. The target sequences, ligating adapters, library amplification and purification, and quality control criteria are also described in detail.
