Synopsis A new histochemical method is described for the polychromatic staining and identification of phospholipids and sulpholipids in tissue sections. It is an adaptation of a chromatographic method described previously (Kennedy & Collier, 1962). Sections are stained in a mixture of Diamond Sky Blue B, Diamond Cyanine R and formalin, followed by differentiation in 2-morpholinoethanol and bromine water, counterstaining in Cresyl Fast Violet and decolorization in lactic acid.The interpretation of the final colours in the test tissues was checked by extraction and chromatography of their lipid content.The staining of diverse animal and plant tissues is described and illustrated in colour. 相似文献

Isolation of the quinolones, sarafloxacin (SAR), oxolinic acid (OXA), and flumequine (FMQ), from fortified chicken liver tissues, and SAR incurred chicken liver tissues was achieved by combined liquid–liquid extraction and aqueous on-line microdialysis using the automated trace enrichment of dialysates (ASTED) system. Analysis of tissue isolates after ASTED clean-up was performed using reversed-phase HPLC and programmable fluorescence detection. Overall recoveries of SAR, OXA and FMQ from samples fortified over a concentrations range of 1–100 ppb were 94, 97 and 87% with overall inter-assay variability of 4.2, 4.1 and 3.6%, respectively. Chicken liver samples incurred with SAR at three concentration levels also were tested by the ASTED method. The method exhibited high peak resolution (3.4–4.2 on average), a high signal-to-noise ratio, and demonstrated good precision. The ASTED–HPLC method overall had a lower limit of detection (LOD) of 0.2 ppb, and a limit of quantitation (LOQ) of 1 ppb. 相似文献

The enzyme horseradish peroxidase (HRP) is a widely used microinjectable cell marker for studying cell position, lineage, and migration in many kinds of animal embryos. Marked cells are easily identified because they darken when exposed to a chromophore and an HRP substrate such as hydrogen peroxide. This assay, however, requires cytochemical fixation. Thus, when HRP-marked cells need to be identified prior to fixation, visible co-injectants such as dyes and fluorescent substances have been used with HRP. Fluorescent substances have limitations because their excitation could be harmful to the marked cells. Visible but non-fluorescent co-injectants, however, would permit visualization of HRP-marked cells without inflicting such damage. We tested the compatibility of several histological dyes and electrolytic carriers with HRP iontophoresed as a cell marker in 2-cell mouse embryos. The dyes tested were Evans Blue, Cibacron Blue F3GA, Fast Green FCF, and Patent Blue Violet; the electrolytic carriers were KCl, K2SO4, CH3CO2K, and KH2PO4. The combination found most useful was Patent Blue Violet in K2SO4. Survival of embryos incubated to the blastocyst stage following injection with HRP + Patent Blue Violet in K2SO4 at the 2-cell stage was significantly greater than that of embryos injected with any other dye. Although the proportion of embryos undergoing the 8-cell-to-morula transition was somewhat decreased by this treatment, the proportion of embryos reaching the blastocyst stage was comparable to that in the uninjected (control) group. Our results indicate that Patent Blue Violet is a useful, HRP-co-injectable dye for short-term cell marking in preimplantation mouse embryos. 相似文献

The mutagenicity and toxicity of diethylstilbestrol (DES), 17 beta-estradiol and zeranol on the male mouse germ cells were investigated with meiotic micronucleus assays in vivo and in vitro, sperm-head abnormality test and morphometry. Further, the developmental effects of DES on testicular morphology were explored. Micronucleus induction was observed at 10(-7) M concentration of DES and 17 beta-estradiol in vitro, but other treatments yielded negative results. The micronucleus assay in vivo revealed a small number of micronuclei in early haploid spermatids 17 days after a single subcutaneous injection of DES 50 mg/kg, whereas estradiol and zeranol gave negative results. The sperm-head abnormality rates were significantly elevated 5 weeks after treatments with high doses of DES, 17 beta-estradiol and zeranol, and testicular morphometry revealed transient changes in the volume densities of testicular tissue components. Prenatal and neonatal estrogen administration resulted in permanent alterations in seminiferous epithelium and dilatation of the rete testis, but did not affect micronucleus or sperm-head abnormality rates. The mutagenicity and toxicity of hormones in the mouse testis paralleled the hormonal activity of these compounds. Early estrogenization was the most sensitive toxicity test, followed by in vitro meiotic micronucleus induction, whereas the sperm-head abnormality assay and morphological analysis did not reveal subtle changes. 相似文献

Synopsis Elastotic fibres of human skin and of elastofibroma were found to be stained when sections of these tissues had been incubated for aminopeptidase using leucine naphthylamide as substrate and Fast Blue B as the coupling agent. Sections that had been inactivated (with formalin or mercuric chloride) and partially covered with an intact kidney section were stained identically. A dialysing membrane placed between the inactivated skin section and the intact kidney section did not prevent staining of the elastotic fibres. The fibres were also stained when sections were incubated in an aqueous mixture of naphthylamine and an excess of Fast Blue B. It is concluded that the staining of elastotic fibres in histochemical amino-peptidase reactions may be due to adsorption of coloured azo derivatives and may not indicate enzyme activity in the fibres. 相似文献

Chemical methods are needed to confirm the presence of antibiotics detected by microbial inhibition assays in fluids and tissues of farm animals. We have optimized the conditions for the isolation of hygromycin B with a copolymeric bonded solid-phase silica column followed by thin-layer chromatography (TLC) separation and detection of its fluorescence derivative after reaction with fluorescamine. The detection limit of the drug was 50 ng. Serum and plasma samples fortified with hygromycin B were acidified and passed through the copolymerized solid-phase columns previously conditioned with phosphate buffer. Hygromycin B was trapped in the columns and eluted with diethylamine-methanol and analyzed by TLC using acetone-ethanol-ammonium hydroxide as the developing solvent. Hygromycin B bands were derivatized at acidic pH with fluorescamine and visualized under ultraviolet light. Hygromycin B added to bovine plasma was detectable at 25, 50, 100, 250 and 500 ng/ml (ppb). Hygromycin B added to swine serum was detected at 50 ng/ml. However, the serum had to be deproteinized with trichloroacetic acid or acetonitrile prior to solid-phase extraction to gain accurate values. Neomycin and gentamicin (100 ng/ml aqueous solutions) could also be isolated with copolymeric solid-phase columns at a level of 50 ng. Gentamicin, neomycin, gentamicin, spectinomycin, hygromycin B and streptomycin could be separated by TLC, allowing multiresidue detection of these aminoglycosides. The respective RF values of 0.64, 0.56, 0.52, 0.33 and 0.20 indicate the separation of these five compounds. This procedure provides a rapid and sensitive method for the semi-quantitative estimation of aminoglycosides. 相似文献

Azo dyes are widely used in textile, printing, cosmetic, drug and food-processing industries. They are also used extensively in laboratories as either biological stains or pH indicators. The extent of such use is related to the degree of industrialization. Since intestinal cancer is more common in highly industrialized countries, a possible connection may exist between the increase in the number of cancer cases and the use of azo dyes. Azo dyes can be reduced to aromatic amines by the intestinal microflora. The mutagenicity of a number of azo dyes is reviewed in this paper. They include Trypan Blue, Ponceau 3R, Pinceau 2R, Methyl Red, Methyl Yellow, Methyl Orange, Lithol Red, Orange I, Orange II, 4-Phenylazo-Naphthylamine, Sudan I, Sudan IV, Acid Alizarin Violet N, Fast Garnet GBC, Allura Red, Ponceau SX, Sunset Yellow, Tartrazine, Citrus Red No. 2, Orange B, Yellow AB, Carmoisine, Mercury Orange, Ponceau S, Versatint Blue, Phenylazophenol, Evan's Blue and their degraded aromatic amines. The significance of azo reduction in the mutagenesis and carcinogenesis of azo dyes is discussed. 相似文献

A chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay (CLEIA) was compared to an ultraperformance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectroscopy (UPLC‐MS/MS) procedure for the analysis of zeranol and its metabolites in bovine tissue samples. Apparent recoveries from fortified samples by both methods were comparable at 0.5–4.0 µg/kg and a significant correlation was obtained. For CLEIA analysis, hapten mimicking the analyte was first synthesized and conjugated with the carrier protein bovine serum albumin as the immunogen to produce monoclonal antibody. The obtained antibody showed extensive cross‐reactivity toward zeranol metabolites (zearalanone). The limit of detection of CLEIA and UPLC‐MS/MS was 0.05 µg/kg and 0.5 µg/kg, respectively. Recoveries of both methods for fortified samples were higher than 75.0% with the coefficient of variation less than 15%. These results indicated that the combination of screening with CLEIA and confirmation with UPLC‐MS/MS for zeranol and its metabolites would be a reliable method for a large number of bovine samples.

Eighteen fungal strains, known for their ability to degrade lignocellulosic material or lignin derivatives, were screened
for their potential to decolorize commercially used reactive textile dyes. Three azo dyes, Reactive Orange 96, Reactive Violet
5 and Reactive Black 5, and two phthalocyanine dyes, Reactive Blue 15 and Reactive Blue 38, were chosen as representatives
of commercially used reactive dyes. From the 18 tested fungal strains only Bjerkandera adusta, Trametes versicolor and Phanerochaete chrysosporium were able to decolorize all the dyes tested. During degradation of the nickel-phthalocyanine complex, Reactive Blue 38, by B. adusta and T. versicolor respectively, the toxicity of this dye to Vibrio fischeri was significantly reduced. In the case of Reactive Violet 5, a far-reaching detoxification was achieved by treatment with
B. adusta. Reactive Blue 38 and Reactive Violet 5 were decolorized by crude exoenzyme preparations from T. versicolor and B. adusta in a H2O2-dependent reaction. Specific activities of the exoenzyme preparations with the dyes were determined and compared to oxidation
rates by commercial horseradish peroxidase.

The in vitro effects of the anabolic compounds, zeranol, 17 β-estradiol, diethylstilbestrol (DES), and trenbolone, on the activity of purified human carbonic anhydrase I and II were evaluated. In vitro CA enzyme activity was determined colorimetrically using the CO? hydration method of Maren. IC?? values of the compounds that caused inhibition were determined by means of activity percentage diagrams. The IC?? concentrations of zeranol, 17 β-estradiol, DES and trenbolone on hCA I were 94, 55, 10, 898 μM and for hCA II 89, 159, 439 and 101 μM, respectively. 相似文献

Zusammenfassung An frischen, gefriergetrockneten und Schnitten von aldehyd-fixierten Rattengeweben werden 13 Diazoniumsalze als Simultankuppler zum Nachweis saurer, neutraler und alkalischer Hydrolasen mit Azoindoxylverfahren geprüft. Hexazotiertes Neufuchsin und/oder Fast Blue B sind die Diazoniumsalze der Wahl zur Lokalisation von saurer -Galactosidase, Neuraminidase, -N-Acetylglucosaminidase, saurer Phosphatase und unspezifischer Esterase gefolgt von Hexazonium-p-rosanilin. Fast Blue VB, BB und RR sowie Fast Violet B eignen sich zur Untersuchung von Lactase und alkalischer Phosphatase; Fast Garnet GBC kann zur Lokalisation von saurer -Galactosidase, Glucosaminidase und Lactase, Fast Red B, RC, RL und TR sowie Black K nur für Lactase-Studien verwandt werden. Durchschnittlich reichen 0,01–0,02 ml instabiles Diazoniumsalz und 0,3–1 mg stabiles Diazoniumsalz/ml zur korrekten Lokalisation dieser Hydrolasen aus. Im einzelnen hängt die Kupplerkonzentration von der Enzymaktivität und vom untersuchten Organ ab. Gefriergetrocknete Kryostatschnitte liefern unabhängig vom Kuppler die besten Resultate bei Untersuchung von Lactase und alkalischer Phosphatase; Schnitte von form- oder glutaraldehyd-fixierten Organen sind beim Nachweis der restlichen Hydrolasen überlegen. Eine Ausnahme macht die Untersuchung der sauren -Galactosidase und Glucosaminidase mit Fast Garnet GBC; dann werden die besten Ergebnisse nach Gefriertrocknung erzielt.Frische Kryostatschnitte sind zur Darstellung der Lactase mit hexazotiertem Neufuchsin oder p-Rosanilin und der alkalischen Phosphatase mit Fast Blue VB und BB sowie Violet B geeignet; die Gesamtaktivität der sauren, neutralen und alkalischen Hydrolasen kann mit semipermeablen Membranen und den stabilen sowie instabilen Diazoniumsalzen der Wahl untersucht werden.Ausreichende Osmierung der Azoindoxylfarbstoffe ist nur möglich, wenn Hexazonium-p-rosanilin als Kupplungsreagens benutzt wird; ohne Vorbehandlung extrahieren Äthanol, Isopropanol und Xylol alle Azoindoxyle.7 Inkubationsmedien werden zum lichtmikroskopisch-histochemischen Nachweis von Glykosidasen, Esterasen und Phosphatasen mit Azoindoxylmethoden angegeben und typische Anwendungsbeispiele genannt. Zur Gefriertrocknung von Kryostatschnitten mit dem Edwards-Pearse Gewebetrockner EPD 3 wird ein modifiziertes Verfahren beschrieben.

Azoindoxyl methods for the investigation of hydrolasesIV. Suitability of various diazonium salts
Summary Using fresh frozen, freeze-dried or cryostate sections from aldehyde fixed rat tissues 13 diazonium salts were tested as simultaneous coupling reagents for the localization of acid, neutral and alkaline hydrolases with azo indoxyl methods. Hexazotized new fuchsine and/or Fast blue B are the diazonium salts of choice for the demonstration of acid -galactosidase, neuraminidase, -N-acetylglucosaminidase, acid phosphatase, and non-specific esterase followed by hexazotized p-rosaniline. Fast blue VB, BB and RR and Fast violet B are recommended for the investigation of alkaline phosphatase and lactase, Fast garnet GBC for acid -galactosidase, glucosaminidase and lactase. Fast red B, RC, RL and TR and Fast black K can only be employed for lactase studies. The exact concentration of the coupling reagent depends on the activity of the enzyme and the organ investigated. On the average 0.01–0.02 ml unstable diazonium salt/ml and 0.3–1 mg stable diazonium salt/ml are sufficient for the correct localization of these hydrolases. Freeze-dried cryostat sections yield the best results in the demonstration of lactase and alkaline phosphatase independent on the coupling reagent used. Sections from formaldehyde or glutaraldehyde fixed organs are superior for the localization of the other hydrolases; an exception is the investigation of acid -galactosidase and glucosaminidase with Fast garnet GBC. Then, excellent results are obtained also with freeze-dried material.Fresh frozen sections are suitable for the localization of lactase with hexazotized new fuchsine or p-rosaniline and of alkaline phosphatase with Fast blue VB and BB or violet B. The total activity of acid, neutral and alkaline hydrolases can be investigated using semipermeable membranes in combination with all unstable and stable diazonium salts of choice.Reliable osmification of the azoindoxyl dye is only possible if hexazotized p-rosaniline is employed for coupling; without further posttreatment all azoindoxyl dyes are extracted by ethanol, isopropanol or xylol.7 incubation media are given for the demonstration of hydrolases with azoindoxyl methods at the level of light microscopy for routine studies and typical examples for the application of these methods are presented. A modified procedure is described for the freeze-drying of cryostat sections with the Edwards-Pearse tissue dryer EPD 3.

The suitability of hexazonium-p-rosanilin (HP) in the histochemical demonstration of peptidases was investigated. The detection was carried out in cold mictrotome sections adherent to slides or semipermeable membranes. Alanyl-1-naphthylamide, alanyl-2-naphthylamide, leucyl-2-naphthylamide, leucyl-4-methoxy-2-naphthylamide (all substrates in concentration of 0.4 mg/1 ml of citrate phosphate buffer pH 6.5), gamma-L-glutamyl-1-naphthylamide, gamma-L-glutamyl-2-naphthylamide (both substances in concentration of 0.24 mg/1 ml of acetate buffer pH 6.5) were used as the substrates. Results were compared with those obtained with Fast Blue B and Fast Garnet GBC. In comparison with Fast Blue B and Fast Garnet GBC HP is a faster coupler, furnishes azodyes which are stable, amorphous (even without lipid extractions from sections), more substantive and in the case of 1-naphthylamine almost insoluble in ordinary lipid solvents used for the dehydration and clearing of sections before mounting. The molecular extinction coefficient of azodyes furnished by HP is 1.5X higher for 1-naphthylamine than for 2-naphthylamine. It is higher than that of Fast Garnet GBC, however, lower than that of Fast Blue B. The inhibitory influence of individual diazonium salts on enzyme activity (activities) splitting leucyl-2-naphthylamide amounts to 36% (Fast Garnet GBC), 37% (Fast Blue B), 52% (HP, 0.03 ml/1 ml) and 63% (HP, 0.09 ml/1 ml) at pH 6.5. For gamma-glutamyl-transpeptidase the corresponding values are 50%, 59%, 62% and 67%. The higher inhibitory influence of HP is compensated by the possibility of its using in the technic of semipermeable membranes. HP improves greatly the localization of peptidases in cold microtome sections from which lipids were not extracted. The best results are furnished by 1-naphthylamine dervatives. In the case of 4-methoxy-2-naphthylamine derivatives the localization is very sharp, however, the azodye is less distinct than that of 2-naphthylamine. The localization as obtained with HP in combination with substrates derived of simple naphthylamines is similar or even better than with 4-methoxy-2-naphthylamine derivatives applied with Fast Blue B. Typical examples are shown. 相似文献

Synopsis The composition of some stains produced by the oxidation of Methylene Blue has been studied by thin-layer chromatography. Various named methods for the production of Polychrome Methylene Blue, Azure A, Azure B, Azure C and Methylene Violet Bernthsen have been found to give complex mixtures of varying proporitions of up to eleven dyes. Ten of these, namely Methylene Blue, Azure B, Azure A,sym-Dimethylthionine, Azure C, Thionine, Methylene Violet Bernthsen, Methyl Thionoline, Thionoline and Thionol, have been identified by their visible absorption spectra. The remaining dye could not be identified. When used on a laboratory scale, these methods give stains of constant composition independent of the batch of Methylene Blue. Stain composition as revealed in the present study has been compared with that previously indicated by other, less effective, analytical techniques. Reasons are presented why the latter give equivocal results. 相似文献

Two complementary methods for identifying and measuring sulfonamide residues in eggs were developed for use in surveying eggs for potential drug residues. The first method uses liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS-MS) to confirm the presence of sulfonamide residues in eggs. During its validation the limit of confirmation was estimated to be 5-10 ng/g (ppb) depending on the drug. Also, a method for measuring residue level by liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection (LC-UV) was validated using the same extraction procedure as the confirmatory method. The determinative method was validated over the 50-200 ppb range. Samples were prepared by homogenizing whole egg, extracting with acetonitrile, and cleaning up with a C(18) solid-phase extraction cartridge. For confirmation, analytes were separated by gradient LC on a C(18) column, ionized by electrospray ionization (ESI), and detected by MS-MS with an ion trap mass spectrometer. For determination, analytes were separated by a different gradient LC procedure and detected by UV at 287 nm. Fifteen drugs were dosed individually in laying hens, and residues of parent drug and/or metabolites were found in eggs for all the drugs. Validation was based on repetitive analyses of control samples, control samples fortified at 100 ppb sulfonamides, and samples of blended incurred eggs. 相似文献

Proteases present in mast cell granules have been harnessed to demonstrate mast cells in human tissues. A number of substrate mixtures were tested. D-Val-Leu-Arg-4-methoxy-2-naphthylamide (MNA) plus Fast Blue B was the best for identifying human mast cells, yielding the most specific and complete staining. The procedure is simple and the results are permanent. Cryostat sections of aldehyde-fixed routine preparations or paraffin sections of Carnoy-fixed tissues give the most satisfactory results. Mast cells are stained a strong red color that stands out distinctly from the surrounding tissues, so that they can be easily identified by simple microscopy. A double-staining technique, first for protease and subsequently using Alcian Blue, showed that as progressive protease staining occurs, the alcianophilia of mast cells is lost. This procedure demonstrated that mast cells in the mucosa of human gut generally required longer incubations to develop protease staining than in other connective tissue sites. In post-mortem tissues, mast cells retain their protease activity well and so can be demonstrated in cryostat sections of aldehyde-fixed material, giving a more complete picture than with Alcian Blue. The synthetic substrate D-Val-Leu-Arg-MNA can be recommended for routine identification of mast cells in human tissues. 相似文献

Chick embryo electroporation is a powerful tool for the introduction of transgenes into tissues of interest for the study of developmental biology. This method often uses Fast Green to visualize the injected area by staining the solution containing DNA green. Here, we show that Fast Green fluoresces in a red color after electroporation, suggesting that researchers need to be cautious when detecting red fluorescence. Fast Green solution did not show any fluorescence before injection into chick embryos, but fluoresced red within 3 min post-injection into chick embryos. We identified Brilliant Blue as suitable alternative dye for use as an indicator of injection sites in ovo electroporation. We found that 0.2% of Brilliant Blue was sufficient to track the area of DNA injection. In addition, this chemical did not show red fluorescence after electroporation. Our findings demonstrate that Brilliant Blue can be used for detecting red fluorescent proteins introduced into chick embryos by electroporation. Our study also shows useful examples for the application of Brilliant Blue for the precise quantification of two fluorescence intensities after EGFP and mCherry co-electroporation. 相似文献

Interaction of phytoestrogens and other environmental estrogens with prostaglandin synthase in vitro 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
G H Degen 《Journal of steroid biochemistry》1990,35(3-4):473-479
The phytoestrogens daidzein, genistein, equol and coumestrol were found to stimulate microsomal prostaglandin H synthase (PHS) in vitro in a concentration-dependent manner when PHS-activity was measured by arachidonic acid-dependent oxygen uptake. These compounds were co-oxidized by PHS and the conversion of parent compounds was measured by HPLC analysis. The stimulation of PHS-cyclooxygenase by these compounds was partially reversed at high concentrations probably due to their antioxidant properties causing inhibition. In contrast, the monomethyl ethers of daidzein and genistein, formononetin and biochanin A, had little or weakly inhibitory effect on PHS, and appear to be no or poor co-substrates for PHS. Compared to the equine estrogen equilin, its metabolite d-equilenin was poorly metabolized by PHS and inhibited rather than stimulated PHS-cyclooxygenase activity in vitro. The resorcylic acid lactones zearalenone and zeranol, on the other hand, were surprisingly good inhibitors of PHS-cyclooxygenase. Furthermore, zeranol inhibited both the arachidonic acid and the hydrogen-peroxide-dependent oxidation of DES in contrast to indomethacin which inhibited only cyclooxygenase-dependent co-oxidation of DES. The results of this in vitro study are discussed in the context of data on synthetic and steroidal estrogens and support the idea that PHS-activity may be modulated by interaction with certain estrogenic compounds. 相似文献

For the sensitive and selective determination of zeranol, taleranol, α-zearalenol, β-zearalenol and zearalenone in animal urine and tissue a LC-MS/MS method has been developed. Sample preparation included extraction of meat samples and enzymatic digest of urine samples followed by solid-phase extraction with RP-18 columns for sample clean-up. Mass spectrometric determination was carried out with an atmospheric pressure chemical ionisation interface (APCI) in the multi-reaction monitoring mode (MRM). Using the negative ion mode detection limits between 0.1 and 0.5 ppb and determination limits between 0.5 and 1 ppb could be achieved. With zearalanone as internal standard, a linear range between 0.5 (1.0) and 100 ppb in urine samples (cow; pig) and between 1 and 100 ppb in meat samples (cow, calf, pig) could be established. Depending on the biological matrix and analyte standard deviations were below 8.2 %, with recovery rates between 86 and 102 % in spiked samples. The applicability of the method was demonstrated via several contaminated cow and pig urine samples. 相似文献
