Additional Information: Developmental Window: First detects target at stage 39, continues until latest stages tested. Stains:' distal pronephric nephron and pronephric / Wolffian duct. The duct staining is mosaic and only some cells are recognized. Sains the entire cell surface evenly with no basolateral/apical bias. Fixatives: MEMFA Available as:' cell supernatant, 3 x Optimized conditions: Very clean antibody, very stable, can be reused. Development in BCIP/NBT usually takes 30 minutes, in red, about 60 minutes. Works well in immunofluorescense. As the pronephros is only covered by a thin transparent epidermis it is not necessary to clear stained embryos. Other species: Xenopus only
