骨组织的脱钙及其免疫组织化学技术的探讨

骨组织的免疫组织化学染色 (ＩＨＣＳ)技术不同于普通石蜡切片常用的ＩＨＣＳ技术 ,有许多特殊性。为了提高骨组织ＩＨＣＳ的质量 ,本文根据骨组织及其ＩＨＣＳ技术的特点 ,对影响ＩＨＣＳ质量的几个问题进行了探讨。免疫组织化学染色 (Ｉｍｍｕｎｏｈｉｓｔｏｃｈｅｍｉｃａｌｓｔａｉｎｉｎｇ,ＩＨＣＳ)技术是用已知的标记的特异性抗体或抗原对组织内相应抗原或抗体进行定性、定位或定量检测 ,经组织化学反应 ,使标记于特异性抗体的酶、金属及荧光素等呈现出某种颜色 ,并借助于光镜、荧光显微镜及电子显微镜等观察所显示的颜色和变化 ,从…     

对徒手切片技术的一点改进

徒手切片技术运用在植物学实验教学中的历史较为悠久,在石蜡切片之前,基本上使用徒手切片。它的优点在于可以观察新鲜材料组织和细胞的天然色彩,看到活体细胞结构状态,所以徒手切片运用在植物学实验教学中比较普遍。为了克服传统徒手切片技术中的不足,我们进行了改进,改为皮套加刀片。这种切片方法切片速度快,软硬质材料都可以切,不需要任何夹物,既经济适用,又简单易行。     

A Rapid and Simple PCR-based Method for Analysis of Transgenic Fish using a Restricted Amount of Fin Tissue

The protocol described in this paper offers a simple and rapid method for PCR analysis of transgenes using a restricted amount of fin tissue from small-sized transgenic fish. A simple preparation of fin lysate using a buffer containing a low concentration of an ionic detergent, SDS (0.01%), followed by neutralization with a second buffer containing higher concentrations of non-ionic detergents NP40 (2%) and Tween 20 (2%) consistently provides a reliable quantity of high-quality DNA template for PCR amplification of transgenes. Based on this protocol, transgenic fish can be clearly distinguished from non-transgenic fish using PCR in a rapid and reproducible manner. Tedious DNA purifications are avoided while fidelity of amplification and efficient identification of transgenic fish are maintained.     

Kinematics Modeling and Experiments of Pectoral Oscillation Propulsion Robotic Fish

A robotic fish driven by oscillating fins, "Cownose Ray-I", is developed, which is in dorsoventrally flattened shape withouta tail. The robotic fish is composed of a body and two lateral fins. A three-factor kinematic model is established and used in thedesign of a mechanism. By controlling the three kinematic parameters, the robotic fish can accelerate and maneuver. Forwardvelocity is dependent on the largest amplitude and the number of waves in the fins, while the relative contribution of fin beatfrequency to the forward velocity of the robotic fish is different from the usual result. On the other hand, experimental results onmaneuvering show that phase difference has a stronger effect on swerving than the largest amplitude to some extent. In addition,as propulsion waves pass from the trailing edge to the leading edge, the robotic fish attains a backward velocity of 0. 15 m·s^-1.     

Effect of an Artificial Caudal Fin on the Performance of a Biomimetic Fish Robot Propelled by Piezoelectric Actuators

This paper addresses the design of a biomimetic fish robot actuated by piezoeeramic actuators and the effect of artificial caudal fins on the fish robot＇s performance. The limited bending displacement produced by a lightweight piezocomposite actuator was amplified and transformed into a large tail beat motion by means of a linkage system. Caudal fins that mimic the shape of a mackerel fin were fabricated for the purpose of examining the effect of caudal fm characteristics on thrust production at an operating frequency range. The thickness distribution of a real mackerel＇s fin was measured and used to design artificial caudal fins. The thrust performance of the biomimetic fish robot propelled by fins of various thicknesses was examined in terms of the Strouhal number, the Froude number, the Reynolds number, and the power consumption. For the same fm area and aspect ratio, an artificial caudal fin with a distributed thickness shows the best forward speed and the least power consumption.

A Method for Histological Preparation of Undecalcified Bone Sections Containing Acrylic Bone Cement

An improved and time reducing method is presented for the histological evaluation of bone containing polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cement. The undecalcified bone was embedded in epoxy resin and sections of 50-100 μm thickness were produced using a commercially available cutting grinding system. The sections were stained with Stevenel's blue and van Gieson picrofuchsin or a modified hematoxylin-eosin. PMMA bone cement was not dissolved and remained enabling examination in situ of an intact cement bone interface and tissue reaction without decalcification.     

A Simple Clearing Method for Improved Visualization of lacZ Expression in Fish Larvae

The protocol described in this report provides a simple and reliable method for improved visualization of lacZ expression upon X-gal staining. The simple treatments of KOH-H2O2 and glycerol removed all pigment from the whole body and made the demelanized fry transparent without any structural damage. Based on this method, the exogenous expression of lacZ could be easily identified and distinguished from endogenous background activity in pigmented transgenic fry.     

An Estimation Procedure for the Joint Distribution of Spatial Direction and Thickness of Flat Bodies Using Vertical Sections. Part II: An application in soil micromorphology

In soil micromorphology fissures are considered in vertical sections. To get information about the properties of the soil the joint distribution of spatial direction and width of these fissures is of interest. The fissures are mathematically generalized to flat bodies which are defined as stationary weighted surface processes with the weight “thickness”. In a typical point of the surface process suitable, joint parametric distributions of direction and thickness are assumed. The parameters have to be estimated from measurements on vertical sections which are taken from the soil. On these sections only a visible thickness and a visible angle can be observed. The joint distribution of these variables can be expressed by the joint distribution of spatial direction and thickness with the same parameters and in this indirect way the parameters can be estimated. The paper describes how to randomize the vertical section and how to measure the visible variables on the sections. The Chi-Square method is proposed for the parameter estimation. Further it is discussed how to derive good starting values for the numerical procedure. All this is demonstrated in a simulation study using the Bingham-Mardia distribution for the direction and the lognormal distribution for the thickness including a way to correlate the mean thickness and the direction. Finally an application in soil micromorphology is demonstrated for one soil horizon.
