Specialized adaptations for application of Goldner's Masson trichrome stain to plastic embedded undecalcified bone specimens are presented. This stain can be used successfully on methyl-glycol methacrylate, glycol methacrylate and Spurr embedded bones. The stain affords the advantage of good cellular staining due to the hematoxylin component with concomitant sharp discrimination of mature bone ...

WVith improvements in and the lowering costs of photographic methods, light and electron photomicrography have become indispensable for the spread of biomedically related knowledge. Now color photomicrography is within the range of most laboratory budgets, but to my knowledge there has been no comprehensive practical guidebook on color techniques. This book attempts to fill the need. Unfortunat...

Cavitation bubbles were generated by the 193 nm argon fluoride excimer laser delivered with a specially designed tip into absorbing NaCl solution. The dynamics of bubble formation and collapse have been studied using fast flash photomicrography. The bubble dimensions were measured at different time delays as a function of the tip exit diameter, the energy fluence of the laser, and the NaCl conc...
