Abstract:
The Golgi silver staining procedure relies on three interdependent stages: fixation, chromation, and metal impregnation. Each of these stages can be modified. This protocol describes a method demonstrated to stain neurons within the mosquito central nervous system. The resulting preparations are stable at room temperature.
