چکیده
This paper describes a method for the sensitive detection of aluminium in biological tissues by real time confocal laser scanning microscopy after staining with lumogallion. The method enabled detection of aluminium > or = 9 micrograms g-1 in bone and is more sensitive than the conventional histochemical methods with aluminium and solochrome azurine, etc. Lumogallion reacts specifically with aluminium to form a fluorescent complex so that the proposed method is useful for detection and identification of aluminium in tissues.

Background Ovarian tissue cryopreservation represents a promising strategy to preserve the ovarian function in cancer patients. It is usually performed by slow freezing/rapid thawing (SF/RT). Recent studies emphasize an ultrarapid cryopreservation procedure, vitrification/warming (V/W), since it might prevent damages due to ice crystal formation. Comparative studies between the cryopreservation...
متن کاملAluminum accumulation at nuclei of cells in the root tip. Fluorescence detection using lumogallion and confocal laser scanning microscopy.
The mechanistic basis for Al toxicity effects on root growth is still a matter of speculation, but it almost certainly involves decreased cell division at the root apex. In this series of experiments, we attempt to determine whether Al enters meristematic cells and binds to nuclei when roots are exposed to a low Al(3+) activity in solution. The methodology involved the use of the Al-sensitive s...

The mechanism behind the adjuvant effect of aluminum salts is poorly understood notwithstanding that aluminum salts have been used for decades in clinical vaccines. In an aqueous environment and at a nearly neutral pH, the aluminum salts form particulate aggregates, and one plausible explanation of the lack of information regarding the mechanisms could be the absence of an efficient method of t...
