Localization of LKR/SDH in ovary and midgut cells by IFAT.
Slides of ovary or midgut tissue from adults 4 days post-engorgement were used with mouse anti-SDH serum as primary antibodies. The mouse anti-IgG conjugated with Alexa 488 was used as a secondary antibody for ovarian tissues and mouse anti-IgG conjugated with Alexa 594 for midgut tissues. DGC, digestive cell; Oc, oocyte; L, midgut lumen. Magnification, ×20.
