Multicolor Labeling of Cortical Neurons with Lipophilic Dye-Coated Particles

Multicolor Labeling of Cortical Neurons with Lipophilic Dye-Coated Particles.
Fixed brain slice from a P20 mouse that was shot with a combination of the seven different particle types. The image represents a projection of 132 confocal planes covering 50 microns of depth. Many of the cells had processes that extended beyond the upper or lower surface of the slice and hence have dendritic or axonal branches that end abruptly.
