Reference: J:44484 Gresik EW, et al., Expression of epidermal growth factor receptor in fetal mouse submandibular gland detected by a biotinyltyramide-based catalyzed signal amplification method. J Histochem Cytochem. 1997 Dec;45(12):1651-7
Assay type: Immunohistochemistry
MGI Accession ID: MGI:5632212
Gene symbol: Egfr
Gene name: epidermal growth factor receptor
Antibody: anti-EGFR
Detection system: Secondary antibody coupled to biotin
Assay notes: Fixative was either Carnoy's or Bouin's solution. A Biotinyltyramide-based Catalyzed Signal Amplification Method was used to visualize signal.
Results
Specimen 4A: embryonic day 13.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS21: submandibular gland primordium epithelium Present 4A Expression is in cell membranes.
