Figure 8 bright-field micrograph of a cross section through a stage 21 embryo that has been stained for type II collagen, demonstrating the localization of reaction product in the peri-notochordal region (arrow) . b is a bright-field micrograph of a section through the embryo shown in Fig. 7 c, without any additional staining in order to localize the immunoreactivity further. Note the presence of immunoreactivity in the basement membranes around the notochord (n) and on the ventral side of the neural tube, as well as in the floor plate, the sub-notochordal rod and in the developing vertebra.
