Isolation of postimplantation-stage embryos allows one to study normal development as well as genetic mutations which cause postimplantation defects. This protocol describes a method for isolation of early neural-fold-stage embryos. - [Read Isolating Postimplantation Embryos: Early Neural-Fold-Stage Protocol]
Isolation of postimplantation-stage embryos allows one to study normal development as well as genetic mutations which cause post-implantation defects. This protocol describes a method for isolating early primitive-streak-stage embryos. - [Read Isolating Postimplantation Embryos: Early Primitive-Streak-Stage Protocol]
Isolation of postimplantation-stage embryos allows one to study normal development as well as genetic mutations which cause postimplantation defects. This protocol describes a method for isolating early somite-stage embryos (~8.5 days post coitum [dpc]). - [Read Isolating Postimplantation Embryos: Early Somite-Stage Protocol]
Isolation of postimplantation-stage embryos allows one to study normal development as well as genetic mutations which cause postimplantation defects. This protocol describes a method for isolating late primitive-streak-stage embryos (~7.5 days post coitum [dpc]). - [Read Isolating Postimplantation Embryos: Late Primitive-Streak-Stage Protocol]
Isolation of postimplantation-stage embryos allows one to study normal development as well as genetic mutations that cause post-implantation defects. This protocol describes a method for isolating prestreak-stage embryos (~5.5 days post coitum [dpc]). - [Read Isolating Postimplantation Embryos: Prestreak-Stage Protocol]
Germ layers are multipotent tissues that have the ability to differentiate into various tissue types. Isolation and manipulation of germ layers is important for examining differentiation. This protocol describes a method for separating postimplantation germ layers. - [Read Separating Postimplantation Germ Layers Protocol]
This protocol describes a method for static culture of early postimplantation mouse embryos on a microscope stage. Embryos between 6.5 and 9.5 days post coitum (dpc) can be cultured and imaged for 24 hours, with very little growth retardation. - [Read Static Culture of Postimplantation Embryos for Imaging Protocol]

Protocol describes static culture of postimplantation embryos, an alternative to the roller method. The static method is best suited to 6.0 to 7.0 days post coitum (dpc) embryos followed for 24 hours (7.0 dpc embryos) to 48 hours (6.0 dpc embryos) of development. It allows repetitive real-time observation with minimal handling of the embryo. It is especially useful if single or small groups of embryos need to be distinguished from each other. - [Read Static Culture of Postimplantation Embryos Protocol]
