Oxidized p-phenylenediamine staining of epoxy resin sections.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Semithin and thin sections of glutaraldehyde-fixed, epoxy resin-embedded animal tissues were treated with solutions of oxidized p-phenylenediamine (PPD). This method is suitable to reveal the general morphology of tissues in light microscopy, showing a high staining degree in some polyanion containing components. Posttreatments of thin sections with gold chloride solutions give considerable electron opacity in PPD positive structures.

How we process trephine biopsy specimens: epoxy resin embedded bone marrow biopsies.
Improved cytomorphology of semithin resin sections over paraffin wax embedded sections may be important in diagnostic haematopathology. However, resin embedding can make immunohistochemical antigen detection or DNA isolation for clonal gene rearrangement assays difficult. This review describes the processing of bone marrow biopsies using buffered formaldehyde based fixation and epoxy resin embe...
متن کاملApplication of standard micro-anatomical staining methods to epoxy resin-embedded sections.
Staining of semi-thin sections of osmium-fixed epoxy resin (Epon or Araldite)-embedded tissues with haematoxylin and acid dyes as counterstains (eosin or phloxin) was successfully achieved after intense oxidation using hydrogen peroxide as the oxygen donor. Results are closely similar to those obtained with paraffin sections (haematoxylin and eosin): nuclei stain blue, cytoplasm and extracellul...

We performed pre-embedding electron microscopic study for visualizing the antigen and genome of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) virus in the cytoplasm of macrophages of the human splenic red pulp, both requesting preheating treatment of sections. To pursue this, coated glass slides with unique characteristics are needed. Namely, during staining they must prevent detaching off...
متن کاملA routine method for embedding animal tissues in Spurr resin for electron microscopy.
The epoxy resin epon 812 has been used in this department to embed a variety of normal and pathological tissues for a number of years. Unfortunately during the past 18 months sectioning qualities of polymerized epon blocks have become variable in an unpredictable manner. It is possible that the batch variation in the quality and composition of the dodecynl succinic anhydride (DDSA) could be res...
متن کاملThe Use of Potassium Permanganate as an Electron-Dense Stain for Sections of Tissue Embedded in Epoxy Resin
Potassium permanganate has become an established fixative in electron microscopy (Luft, 1956) and has special value in the study of cell membranes. During an investigation of methods of increasing the contrast in the electron microscope of tissues embedded in epoxy resin, t a solution of potassium permanganate was used to treat the sections, using a technique similar to that of Watson (1958). P...
