Figure 2From: Sensitivity and permissivity of Cyprinus carpio to cyprinid herpesvirus 3 during the early stages of its development: importance of the epidermal mucus as an innate immune barrierQuality control of D?luciferin microinjection by epifluorescent microscopy. Prior to IVIS analysis, D?luciferin was microinjected into the peritoneal cavity of carp. The success of the injection was controlled by epifluorescent microscopy of the subjects with D?luciferin autofluorescence. The upper and lower panels represent fish injected with PBS (panel a) and D?luciferin (panel b), respectively. Both subjects illustrating the larval stage (15 days post-hatching) were examined under full field 488 nm excitation. Scale bars = 1 mm.Back to article page
