Abstract
Arnolds' silver staining is used to visualize the boundaries of epidermal cells at the surface of embryos. As described in this article, silver staining can be performed on either living or fixed Helbodella (leech) embryos. To preserve the cell junction in fixed embryos, a special fixation procedure is used.
