Can someone out there can help me get rid of, or at least reduce the
autofluorescence from blood vessels in our sections.  We do all of our
imaging on brain slices (10-100 microns) fixed in 4% Paraform./PBS. I've
tried various blocking buffers and routinely include glycine to help quench
aldehydes to no avail.  Any suggestions??
 
Thanks,
Judy Drazba
