=Embryo details=

Species: Gallus gallus domesticus Embryo Name: RC010 Embryo stage: ST25 Staging description: Staged by Reuben according to the Hamburger and Hamilton (1951) staging system. (Notebook entry 10th January 2011 ). Staging has not been confirmed. Fixation: PFA Cryoprotection: None Material label and storage: Stored in vial filled with PFA labeled RC-010 and placed in a container labeled 'Reuben's staged embryos' next to the dissection microscope.
 * Too grooves present but not distinct (<ST26).
 * Tail region segmented.
 * Visceral clefts still visible (<ST26).
 * Shape of the hindbrain has a sligh groove which resembles the images for ST25.

=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 ST25.

=Images= =Summary=

This embryo may be used in further experiments as approximately a ST25 embryo however confirmation is needed.
