<br>Species: Gallus gallus domesticus
<br>'''Species''':
<br>Embryo Name:RC-009
<br>'''Embryo Name''':
<br>Embryo stage: 24 {{Note|Staging not confirmed by Supervisor}}
<br>'''Embryo stage''':
<br>Staging description:
<br>'''Staging description''':
*Elbow and knee joints are distinct. This may indicate that the embryo is greater than stage 24.
<br>'''Fixation''':
*No toe demarcation visible. This may indicate that the embryo is less than stage 26.
<br>'''Cryoprotection''':
*Toe groove on developing leg not visible. This indicates that the embryo has not reached stage 25.
<br>'''Material label and storage''':
Therefore the embryo is stage 24.
<br>Cryoprotection: Not cryoprotected. Sectioned from PFA.

<br>Objective: Analyze Nissl-stained serial sections of the embryo. 
<br>'''Objective''':
<br>Procedure:  
<br>'''Procedure''':  
*Staged the embryo according to Hamburger and Hamilton staging (1951). {{Note|This is an approximation as it was not checked}}
<br>'''Comments''':
*Under a dissection microscope the head was cleaved from the tail using the dissection scissors at the level of the wing bud. {{Note|This can not be confirmed as there was no photograph taken of the embryo prior to cutting}}
*The embryo was embedded in OCT and frozen at -19°C (in the cryostat chamber), loaded onto a chuck and incubated for an hour.
*Serial sections were cut and mounted onto the gelatin-subbed slides whilst time spent cutting the section and time spent in chamber before mounting were recorded into my lab-book.
*The sections were dried and then Nissl-stained for visualization under a microscope.
<br>Comments:I did not allow myself enough time to complete the sectioning of the embryo. I stopped halfway through the hindbrain. The other half of the hindbrain and head were discarded.

Half of the hindbrain and head are missing from the slides as they were discarded.

No images have been taken.
=Summary=


The objective was not achieved as I did not allow enough time to complete the cutting of the embryo.
