CELLOIDIN PARAFFIN METHOD

A Rapid Method of Paraffin Embedding

Method of Silver Impregnation for Nervous Tissue Embedded in Paraffin.

Paraffin oxidation in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. I. Induction of paraffin oxidation.

The induction of paraffin oxidation in intact cells of Pseudomonas aeruginosa was investigated. Oxidation of (14)C-heptane by cell-free extracts of adapted cells showed that the activity of whole cells is a reliable reflection of the synthesis of the first enzyme in the degradation of n-alkanes. Induction was significantly affected by glucose and could be completely repressed by malate. The ami...

An improved method for sequential light and scanning electron microscopy of the same cell using localising microcoverslips.

Cytologic material may contain cell clusters and tissue debris, which are often missed on smears. The processing in parallel of both cytologic smears and sediment when available has been recommended ,1-5 for tissue fragments present in the latter increase diagnostic precision. Paraffin embedding of the sediment for histological examination presents obvious technical difficultiesandit has been p...

Preventing Paraffin-Related Injury

Paraffin (called kerosene in North America and other parts of the world) is the most commonly used fuel in ‎non-electrified dwellings worldwide. It is especially popular in Africa and South Asia. Although paraffin ‎offers many advantages-especially its comparatively low cost to produce-it poses two major risks of ‎injury. First, paraffin poisoning is common, either through ingestion or through ...
