Protocol

1. Standard SHIELD protocol.

2. Passive delipidation with Clear+ Delipidation Buffer.

3. 2 days blocking with Blocking Buffer at 37°C.

4. Radiant Labeling in SmartBatch+ using 6 µg Rat anti-SST antibody in the Single Sample Staining Cup.

5. Secondary Labeling with 12 µg Donkey anti-Rat SeTau-647 in SmartBatch+.

6. EasyIndex index matching and mounting.
