| Abstrakt: | In situ RT-PCR presents advantages over other expression analysis methods due to its rapid processing and low-cost equipment. However, this technique is not without its challenges. A protocol based on a capsule made from centrifuge tubes that offers advantages over slides is presented. This capsule protects histological sections from drying out, and its easy assembly reduces time pauses between incubations. In addition, the container size where the sample is deposited allows the addition and withdrawal of the different solutions. The capsule does not need previous sealing after each incubation, and, above all, it is a low-cost and accessible material. A guideline for tissue sectioning using a cryostat that offers advantages over other sectioning methods is also described. (© 2024.
