Silver Impregnation for Electron Microscopy

Heavy metal impregnation of specimens for electron microscopy offers a means for differential "staining" of various tissue components and cellular constituents. Of many silver impregnation methods, one of the most useful is Gomori's silver methenamine (1) after periodic acid oxidation (PA-SM) (2, 3). Several authors have applied silver impregnation to electron microscopy (4-7), mainly for the d...

Improvement of silver impregnation technique (protargol) to obtain morphological features of protists ciliates, flagellates and opalinates.

The research on ciliates, flagelates and opalinates have been widespread by the utilization of techniques employing silver impregnation (protargol), modified by several authors. However, these are time consuming and its results are variable. The present work is a variant of the technique described by Tuffrau (1964, 1967) showing some adaptations made in our laboratory. The organisms can be pres...
