Large-scale 3D imaging of mouse cochlea using serial block-face scanning electron microscopy

Summary: This protocol describes how to prepare intact mouse cochleae for serial block-face scanning electron microscopy (SBEM). The detailed workflow includes cochlea fixation, en bloc staining, resin embedding, X-ray microscopy-guided trimming and SBEM data acquisition. This protocol allows large-...
