Accelerated clearing and molecular labeling of biological tissues using magnetohydrodynamic force

Abstract Techniques used to clear biological tissue for fluorescence microscopy are essential to connect anatomical principles at levels ranging from subcellular to the whole animal. Here we report a simple and straightforward approach to efficiently render opaque tissue samples transparent and show...
