I plan to do a immunohistochemical stain on mouse brain tissue
with c-fos. Some protocols I've read state that you should osmicate
the sections, after mounting, to enhance the stain. I've never stained
with c-fos, but I have been told it is very dark on it's own.=C2 Does
anyone know if it will be necessary to osmicate. Of course, I guess I
could just try and see, but any information on the staining process
itself would be helpful.
