[Histonet] c-fos staining

[jaina.negandhi <@t> sickkids.ca]

Hi,

I am carrying out c-fos staining on free-floating cross-sections of the
brain. I am trying to map out the entire brain, and need to use a marker to
distinguish between the left and right sides, as they are symmetrical.

Does anyone know of a marker (eg. dye) that I can use on a full brain
sample without causing too much damage. I'd like to be able to mark it
without gelatin embedding if possible.

Thanks,
