To determine the location of speci fic molecules within tissues or cells, immunological techniques are frequently used. However, immunolocalization of small molecules, such as jasmonic acid (JA) and its bioactive amino acid conjugate, JA-isoleucine, requires proper fixation and embedding methods as well as speci fic antibodies. In this chapter, we present a method to prepare plant tissues for the detection of jasmonates, including the chemical fixation to immobilize JA within the tissue, the subsequent embedding in a suitable medium, and the immunolabeling procedure itself. © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2013.
