Abstract
Seven of the eight applied fluorochromes could be resolved using spectral image examination. With BAPTA, we present a new fluorochrome suitable for bone labeling. Due to the superior sensitivity of the spectral image acquisition, the thickness of the bone sections could be reduced so that 5 μm thick sections could be analyzed. Spectral decomposition and subsequent linear unmixing allows depiction of each individual fluorochrome without interference of any other, enabling a reliable and superior morphometric analysis of labeled regions.
