=Embryo details=

Species: Gallus gallus domesticus Embryo Name: RC007 Embryo stage: ST19 Staging description: Staged by Reuben according to the Hamburger and Hamilton (1951) staging system. Stage not confirmed. (Notebook entry 10th January 2011) Fixation: PFA Cryoprotection: None. Material label and storage: Stored in vial filled with PFA labeled RC-007 and placed in a container labeled 'Reuben's staged embryos' next to the dissection microscope.
 * Small allantois (not nearly as big as the midbrain, ST18)
 * 30-40 somites
 * Tail bud is curved

=Experiment details=

Objective:To use as a practice embryo for staging. Procedure: Staged the embryo by observing the embryo under a dissection microscope and comparing its morphological properties with those described in the Hamburger and Hamilton (1951) paper whilst looking at our own compilation of images organized by stage. Comments:

=Results=

Embryo is approximately ST19

=Images= =Summary=

This embryo may be used in further experiments as approximately a ST19 embryo however confirmation is needed.
