Rapid bone staining with hair removal (RAP-B/HR): a non-destructive and rapid whole-mount bone staining protocol optimized for adult hairy mice
Abstract We developed a non-destructive and rapid whole-mount bone staining method for small fish, Xenopus laevis, and rodent fetuses (RAP-B). RAP-B does not require skin or soft tissue removal. However, RAP-B requires hair removal from hairy animals, such as adult mice and rats. In the present stud...
