Skeletal development in zebrafish using alcian blue-Alizarin red double staining.

A 9 dpf zebrafish control larvae head skeleton presenting calcified calcified pharyngeal teeth (CPT)while other structures like Meckel′s cartilage (MC) and ceratohyal (CH) remain as cartilage); (B?C) 9 dpf control zebrafish head (B) and trunk (C) presenting no signals of bone calcification.(A) A 9 dpf L. rhamnosus fed zebrafish larvae head skeleton presenting calcification of the opercula (OP), cleithrum (CL) and basioccipital articulatory process (BOP). Meckel′s cartilage (MC) and ceratohyal (CH) remain as cartilage; (E) 9 dpf L. rhamnosus fed zebrafish presenting the first hypurals (HYP) developing. Scale bar: 30 μm.
