An immunostaining-based approach for assessing myocardial viability in the infarcted mouse hearts. [PDF]
IntroductionWith the growing need for reliable and precise detection of cell viability in spatial biology, we introduce an antibody-based staining of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) as a simple yet valuable tool for delineating cardiomyocyte viability in the ...
