RNA FISH for mouse

Frozen Mouse Brain Olig2 mRNA

Frozen mouse brain
Olig2 mRNA

About 25% of publications citing Stellaris™ RNA FISH use mouse targets, making this the second most common target after humans. A huge variety of mouse cell types and tissues have been used with Stellaris RNA FISH probe sets and published successfully by our customers including the brain, embryo, retina, lungs, liver, placenta, ovary, eggs and sperm, intestines, and nerves. Stellaris has also been demonstrated to be compatible with the tissue clearing technology CLARITY, making it possible to probe and image RNA transcripts in an entire intact organ. If none of the professionally-designed sets meet your needs, you can always custom design one using our online designer.

Specific mouse resources

Positive control probe sets:

We have positive control ShipReady probe sets for mouse targets ranging from a qualitative Gapdh controls to quantitative spot counting controls like Trfc. ShipReady assays are offered at a fraction of the price of custom or DesignReady probe sets, target constitutively active genes, and should work with almost all mouse samples. We verify these probe sets on cells and/or tissues in house and provide images on the product information sheet of their staining patterns.
