Figure 4. Handling and injection of Xenopus laevis
Both females and males are injected into the dorsal lymph sac.
(A) The area for injection corresponding to the dorsal lymph sac is highlighted in green. Red indicates the lateral line system, resembling stitches on the frog skin. These are sensorial organs, therefore, avoid injecting directly around them.
(B) Pictures of how to handle a frog for injection and how to expose the area to inject. Image published in: Passaretti P et al. (2024) © 2024 The Authors. Creative Commons Attribution license Larger Image Printer Friendly View |
