Improvements in Epoxy Resin Embedding Methods
نویسنده
چکیده
Epoxy embedding methods of Glauert and Kushida have been modified so as to yield rapid, reproducible, and convenient embedding methods for electron microscopy. The sections are robust and tissue damage is less than with methacrylate embedding.

Preparation of serial sections of arthropods using 2,2-dimethoxypropane dehydration and epoxy resin embedding under vacuum.
Improved methods are described for anatomical investigation of small insects and other arthropods using serial semithin sections. The specimens were dehydrated with acidified 2,2-dimethoxypropane and embedded in ERL 4206 epoxy resin under vacuum. This procedure ensures good resin impregnation of thin, long body compartments and appendages. Furthermore, it produces excellent overall preservation...
متن کاملA simple method for high resolution light microscopy of nervous tissue.
A simple method for high resolution light microscopy of nervous tissue is described. Tissue perfused with glutaraldehyde and formaldehyde and postfixed with osmium tetroxide is embedded in HistoResin (LKB Bromma), a new glycol methacrylate based embedding medium, and sectioned (2 microns) on a standard microtome. The method gives excellent preservation of tissue structure, which is far superior...

متن کاملA new and simple cryosectioning protocol for pollen analysis under light microscopy
Conventional plant microtechniques typically involve fixation, dehydration, and embedding in acrylic or epoxy resins followed by room temperature microtomy. Some cryomethods have been used for pollen grain analysis under light microscopy. However, these protocols do not allow for obtaining sections with similar or better quality compared to resin embedding methods. In this paper, a simple cryop...
متن کاملUse of tissues embedded in epoxy resin for routine histological examination of renal biopsies.
The production of 0.4mu thick, full-length sections from renal tissue taken by needle biopsy is achieved by formalin and osmic acid fixation and embedding in epoxy resin as for ultramicrotomy. The marked improvement in histological clarity by using this technique is illustrated by comparison with material embedded in paraffin.
