Figure 1From: Molecular profiling of the developing mouse axial skeleton: a role for Tgfbr2 in the development of the intervertebral discLaser Microdissection. Laser Capture Microdissection (LCM) was carried out using a Zeiss/PALM Microbeam Instrument. Lumbar region IVD (D, shown) and vertebrae (V) were microdissected from frozen sections of E13.5 day embryos. (A) shows before and (B) shows after microdissection of IVD. The green circles show the area that was designated for laser cutting.Back to article page
