2021, Molecular and Cellular NeuroscienceCitation Excerpt :Then, BrdU+ cells were stereologically counted in a minimum of consecutive 24 slices every 240 μm per brain, using the ImageJ plugin, ITCN (ImageJ, RRID: SCR_003070). Myelin was stained following the procedure proposed by (Kaatz et al., 1992). Free-floating sagittal brain sections were washed twice for 1 min in TBS 1× and incubated in solution A at 37 °C in a shaking water bath with gentile agitation.

2006, Brain ResearchCitation Excerpt :Myelin staining is a fundamental technique employed in many areas of neuroscience. Although myelin staining has been employed for over a century (Cohnheim, 1866; Weigert, 1884), new less complex and reliable methods are continuously being sought after (Ciaccio, 1909; Fuentes, 1960; Gallyas, 1979; Kaatz et al., 1992; Kutscher et al., 1987; Larsen et al., 2003; McNally and Peters, 1998; Schmued, 1990). A common feature of the many previous complex myelin-staining procedures is that they exploit chemical or biological properties of the histological section: either using oil-soluble dyes to stain lipophilic components of the fibers (including the lipid phase of the myelin, complex phospholipids, oligodendrocytes), or binding metal particles to some components of myelin (for review, see Schmued, 1990).
