Hi everyone,

I am looking for a dye or other simple way to stain and to especifically detect neurons and glial cells in a Drosophila brain cell suspension.

I realize that HRP could be a marker for neurons, but I don't know how specific is for. Other neuronal dyes that I read recently (in other animal models) are Dil and DiR.

Of course, the best option is a genetic expression marker, but it would be great for me now, to have some "repo-like" and "elav-like" dye marker.
