Fig. 1 Rapid detection of β-lactamase gene expression. (A?D) One-cell-stage embryos were injected with 1 mM CCF2 (right embryo) or with 1 mM CCF2 + 10 ng/μl pXex?β-lactamase plasmid DNA (left embryo). Detection with the CCF2 filter set at the oblong stage (3.7 h at 28.5°C) (A), sphere (4 at 28.5°C) (B), 30% epiboly (4 h at 28.5°C) (C), 80% epiboly (8.5 h at 28.5°C) (D), and 10 somites stage (14 h at 28.5°C) (E). (F?H) One cell stage embryos were injected with 10 ng/μl of pXex?mmGFP plasmid and fluorescence was detected using the fluorescein filter set at 50% epiboly (5.3 h at 28.5°C) (F), 80% epiboly (8.5 h at 28.5°C) (G) and at the 10 somites stage (14 h at 28.5°C) (H).
