Abstract
Polyacrylamide is widely used for the separation of proteins by electrophoresis. Here the usage of polyacrylamide as an infiltrating and embedding medium for vibratome sectioning of human fetal cerebellum containing Dil-filled axons is reported. The procedure is simple to implement and has several advantages: it does not require prior dehydration and clearing of tissue; it can be carried out at a low temperature of 4°C; and the polyacrylamide neither dissolves the Dil nor does it interfere with the visualizing of Dil-filled profiles under fluorescence microscope.
