ARS fluorescence sensitivity single or in combination with expression of green fluorescent reporters. Macerated abdominal vertebrae of adult fish in a sagittal view and b transverse view show distinct mineralization fronts, indicative of vertebral growth. c Caudal fin ray of an adult Tg(fli1:eGFP) fish stained with 0.01 % ARS and d caudal vertebrae formation in a Tg(fli1:eGFP) zebrafish larva. There is a clear distinction between structures stained with ARS and structures that express GFP. Scale bars (a, b) = 0.1 mm; (c, d) = 0.2 mm
