FluoroQuest™ with DAPI is an aqueous mounting medium for preserving fluorescence of tissue and cell smears. This mounting medium is fortified with DAPI which is a counterstain for DNA. For use in in situ hybridization techniques or other methods where fluorescence of DNA staining is required. DAPI excites at 360 nm and emits at 460 nm, producing a blue fluorescence. RNA is also stained with DAPI.

Figure 3. Western corn rootworm midgut morphology after feeding with Vpb4Da2. Vpb4Da2 staining by Alexa-fluor-488 conjugated secondary antibody is in green. Nuclei staining by DAPI is in blue. (A) Longitudinal section of the midgut after 6 h exposure to Vpb4Da2. (B) Cross section after 48 h exposure to Vpb4Da2. (C) Cross section after 96 h exposure to Vpb4Da2. (A) and (B) White arrows indicate blebbing of the epithelial cells. (A), (B) and (C) White arrowheads designate a complete or near complete loss of the apical microvilli layer. (D), (E), and (F) Are untreated controls where black arrowheads indicate the intact apical microvilli layer. Scale bars are all 50 μm.
