Whole-organism 3D Quantitative Characterization of Zebrafish Melanin by Silver Deposition Micro-CT

2021-03-12

Abstract excerpt

Melanin-rich zebrafish melanophores are used to study pigment development, human skin color, and as a large-scale screening phenotype. To facilitate more detailed whole-body, computational analyses of melanin content and morphology, we have combined X-ray microtomography (micro-CT), a non-destructive, full-volume imaging modality, with a novel application of ionic silver staining to characterize melanin distributi...
