3D IHC and Tissue Clearing

Biological tissues are generally composed of proteins, lipids, and water, each of which has a different refractive index (RI). Differences in refractive indices, or RI mismatch, cause the scattering of light in the tissue and result in tissue opacity. Our Ce3D™ Tissue Clearing Solution reduces light scattering by normalizing the RI throughout the tissue, thus making the tissue transparent. This reagent allows for rapid clearing of tissues and the generation of mesmerizing 3D images in multicolor fluorescence microscopy applications.
