Live Detection of Intracellular Chitin in Butterfly Wing Epithelial Cells In Vivo Using Fluorescent Brightener 28: Implications for the Development of Scales and Color Patterns
SIMPLE SUMMARY: Chitin is the major component in the extracellular cuticle and plays multiple roles in insects. In butterflies, chitin contributes to the development of scales and color patterns. Here, we attempted to detect intracellular chitin in live cells with fluorescent brightener 28 (FB28), f...
