Temperature-dependent staining reaction of chromatin by Alcian blue.
After treatment with Alcian blue at high temperatures, nuclei from chicken blood smears showed an intense staining reaction, which proved to be dependent on the DNA content of chromatin. The possibility that interactions between the phthalocyanine chromophore and unpaired bases accounts for this temperature-dependent staining of chromatin is briefly discussed.
متن کاملEffects of Oxidation upon Alcian Blue Staining of Acid Mucopolysaccharides.
Since Steedman ( 1950) has introduced it into histochemistry, alcian blue has been advocated to reveal a staining selectivity which depends upon the presence of acidic groups in mucopolysaccharides (Mowry, 1956; Pearse, 1960). As a plausible ground of this concept the fact has been presented that the alcian blue staining of polysaccharides can be increased in intensity, when acidic groups are i...
متن کاملIn vitro staining of intramuscular nerve endings.
A method is described for vital staining of the human intramuscular nerve endings after the muscle biopsy has been removed from the patient. The muscle is transferred from the site of operation to the laboratory in oxygenated physiological saline. Methylene blue solution (0·015%) is injected into the muscle strip, and development of the stain can be observed under the microscope after exposure ...
متن کاملBasophil counting with a new staining method using alcian blue.
Difficulties in obtaining reproducible and accurate enumeration of circulating basophils with existing techniques have hampered investigation of this infrequent cell population. A new basophil staining method is described that employs alcian blue dye for staining of heparin within basophils at low pH and in the presence of lanthanum ions. Basophil recognition is facilitated by reducing nonspeci...
متن کاملVisualization of sulfated glycoconjugates in the chicken embryonic heart by whole-mount alcian blue staining.
In the atrioventricular canal (AVC) and outflow tract (OT) of the developing heart, endothelial cells transform specifically to mesenchymal cells. The mesenchymal cells migrate into the underlying acellular matrix termed cardiac jelly and form endocardial cushion tissue. It is believed the that the highly hydrated nature of cardiac jelly is ascribed to sulfated glycoconjugates in the components...
