Improved methods for detection of β-galactosidase (lacZ) activity in hard tissue

The β-galactosidase gene (lacZ) of Escherichia coli is widely used as a reporter gene. The expression of lacZ can be detected by enzyme-based histochemical staining using chromogenic substrates such as 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-β-d-galactoside (X-gal). Because the enzymatic activity of lacZ is vuln...
