PROTOCOL
1. Incubate chicken eggs for 2 days.
2. Remove eggs from incubator. Aseptically window eggs(do not remove membrane) and inject control and experimental eggs with 1uL of solution into yolk and away from embryo.
a. Control egg solution: 1mL of
Howard Ringer's solution, 100uL DMSO (5

mM)

b. Experimental egg solution: 1mL of Howard Ringer's Solution, 100 uL

SU5402* (5 mM).

*handle SU5402 with extreme caution!
3. After windowing and injecting the control and experimental solutions, place in 37ºC incubator for 1 or 2 day(s).
4. Open eggs and remove embryo aseptically. Clean embryos in Howard Ringer's Solution and capture images of experimental and control embryos.
5. Preserve in 4% Paraformaldehyde.
6. Process embros with DIG-labled shhriboprobe formin situhybridization.
7. Capture images ofin situhybridized experimental and control embryos.
