Zebrafish Immunofluorescence & Histology Services

Zebrafish Immunofluorescence & Histology Services

Services Supported Types Application Workflow Deliverables

Visualize protein expression, cellular distribution, tissue morphology, and pathological changes in zebrafish models with publication-ready imaging and quantitative analysis. We support whole-mount staining, tissue-section staining, histological evaluation, and image-based quantification across embryos, larvae, adult tissues, and cell samples.

This service is ideal for developmental biology, disease modeling, toxicology, immunology, cancer, angiogenesis, injury, and regeneration studies.

Image Quantification

Service Options

Histology and Tissue Staining

Evaluate tissue architecture, cellular morphology, and pathological changes with established histological methods:

  • H&E Staining
  • Masson's Trichrome
  • PAS Staining
  • Alcian Blue Staining
  • Oil Red O Staining
  • Sirius Red Staining
  • TUNEL Assay
  • Customized Staining

Immunofluorescence Staining

Detect and localize specific proteins, cell populations, and biological processes:

  • Single-color, dual-color, and multicolor staining
  • Whole-mount IF for embryos, larvae, and transparent samples
  • Tissue-section IF (paraffin or cryo sections)
  • Co-localization analysis
  • Fluorescent reporter line imaging
  • Nuclear counterstaining (DAPI, etc.)
  • Cell counting and fluorescence intensity quantification

Imaging and Quantitative Analysis

Microscopy imaging with objective, reproducible quantification:

  • Positive cell counts and percentages
  • Fluorescence intensity and integrated density
  • Positive area and signal coverage
  • Co-localization coefficients
  • Tissue injury, lesion, fibrosis, and lipid deposition area
  • Blood vessel length, branching, and coverage
  • Cell migration distance
  • Region-of-interest (ROI) and Z-stack 3D reconstruction

Supported Sample Types

Whole-mount samples

Embryos, larvae, transparent samples, fluorescent reporter fish

Tissue sections

Adult fish tissues, juvenile fish, dissected organs, tumor xenograft samples, injury or regeneration tissues

Cell samples

Primary cells, zebrafish cell lines, cell coverslips, cultured cells

Disease and treatment models

Infection, inflammation, cancer, toxicology, transgenic, gene-edited, drug-treated, and regeneration models

Tissue-section workflows include paraffin or cryo-embedding, sectioning, and slide preparation tailored to sample type.

Applications

Development & Organogenesis

Visualization of embryonic development, organ formation, cell lineage, and gene-editing phenotypes.

Disease Modeling & Toxicology

Assessment of tissue injury, pathological changes, fibrosis, lipid accumulation, and compound-related toxicity.

Immunology & Infection

Localization and quantification of immune cells, inflammatory signals, and host–pathogen interactions.

Cancer & Angiogenesis

Analysis of tumor growth, tumor-associated immune cells, vascular formation, and treatment response.

Injury & Regeneration

Evaluation of cell proliferation, apoptosis, inflammation, tissue repair, and regeneration processes.

Workflow

Deliverables

Depending on service scope, you'll receive:

  • Representative stained images (raw + processed/annotated)
  • Quantitative results: cell counts, fluorescence intensity, positive area, co-localization data
  • Histopathology observations or scoring (where applicable)
  • Z-stack images or 3D reconstructions, if included in project scope
  • Experimental methods and QC summary
  • Final report (PDF) with raw data in spreadsheet format
