Intravital Subcellular Microscopy of the Mammary Gland

803 Views.  National Institutes of Health. To begin, place the shaved, anesthetized mouse on a warming pad. Pinch the skin with tweezers near the fourth nipple and cut the raised skin with sharp scissors to make a midline incision of approximately one centimeter. Make circular incisions around the gland in both cranial and caudal directions, and carefully peel the skin away from the abdomen.Remove any exogenous blood promptly with physiological saline to avoid subsequent loss of optical resolution. To minimize blood loss, seal ...
