Immunoperoxidase techniques were used to study the preservation of the antigenicity of human lactoferrin (LF) of polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) and various exocrine glandular cells in paraffin-embedded tissue blocks and cytocentrifuged cell smears. Tissues fixed in Carnoy's fluid in contrast to other fixatives used, showed good preservation of LF antigenicity irrespective of the fixation time. Cell smears fixed in Carnoy's fluid showed diffuse nuclear and cytoplasmic staining for LF, although morphologic integrity was poorly preserved. Granular cytoplasmic staining for LF with no staining of nuclei was seen in cell smears fixed in buffered formol acetone for 2--10 min. The nature of nuclear LF staining and future applications of the present methods are discussed. 相似文献

Microwave stabilization versus chemical fixation. A morphometric study in glycolmethacrylate- and paraffin-embedded tissue 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Summary A morphological and morphometrical study was performed on testicular cells after microwave stabilization of the tissue while immersed in phosphate buffered saline (PBS), 0.9 NaCl or Tris-HCl. Fixation in Carnoy's fluid without irradiation was chosen as a control chemical fixation method. After microwave stabilization or chemical fixation, the testes were embedded in paraffin or in plastic (glycolmethacrylate).An excellent morphology, comparable to that after chemical fixation in Carnoy's fluid, was observed in the plastic sections of tissue irradiated in PBS or NaCl, even when the sections were subsequently treated with an aggressive reagent at high temperature, required for the Feulgen reaction. The nuclear area of the microwave-stabilized Sertoli cells was 37–46% smaller in haematoxylin-eosin stained, paraffin sections in comparison with that in the glycolmethacrylate sections. The microwave-stabilized, paraffin-embedded tissue was much more vulnerable to the hot HCl treatment of the Feulgen staining than the chemically fixed tissue, resulting in an additional 10–20% decrease in nuclear size. The latter finding is particularly important for quantitative microscopy, where the Feulgen staining method is often employed. 相似文献

In this study we examined the reproducibility of several stains used to measure nuclear DNA by image cytometry. The specimens were touch preparations of liver and testis from mouse and liver, intestine and brain from rat, fixed in either neutral formalin or Carnoy's solution. The tested stains included four Feulgen methods (pararosaniline, azure-A, thionin and acriflavine), the gallocyanine-chromalum stain and two fluorescent stains (acridine orange and propidium iodide). Absorbance measurements employed a video image analysis system; fluorescence measurements were from a scanning microspectrophotometer. The acriflavine-Feulgen stain was analyzed for both absorbance and fluorescence. All seven stains were quantitative for DNA and gave reproducible results. The absorbance measurements had a lower coefficient of variation (CV) than the fluorescence values. In a nested analysis of variance of the pararosaniline Feulgen stains, cell-to-cell variability accounted for 67% of the total variance; slide-to-slide, 9%; and batch-to-batch, 24%. These values did not change significantly when the staining was performed in an automatic staining machine. For DNA analysis using image cytometry, we conclude that the Feulgen staining technique is the most useful. In particular, acriflavine-Feulgen-stained cells fixed in Carnoy's fluid give the least variation between measurement values and the most accurate ratios between the separate ploidy groups. For fluorescence cytometry we recommend Carnoy's fixation and the acriflavine-Feulgen stain because of its narrow CV as compared to acridine orange and propidium iodide. 相似文献

We have compared the effects of fixation with three commonly used fixatives upon preservation of the antigenicity of six peroxisomal proteins in rat liver using both immunohistochemical staining and Western blotting of fixed tissue extracts. The immunoreactivity of all six peroxisomal proteins was well preserved and peroxisomes were clearly identified in material fixed in Carnoy's fixative. Moreover, the corresponding proteins stained well in Western blots prepared from extracts of Carnoyfixed material. The intensity of the immunohistochemical staining was reduced at different rates for individual peroxisomal proteins after fixation in Baker's formalin, but peroxisomes were still well visualized with antibodies to catalase and some -oxidation enzymes. No evidence of immunohistochemical staining for any peroxisomal antigens was obtained after fixation in Bouin's fluid. For detection of the antibody binding sites in Carnoy's fixed material, the avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex (ABC) with aminoethyl carbazole as chromogen was found to be superior to the methods of peroxidase-antiperoxidase/diaminobenzidine and protein A-gold with silver intensification. Using Carnoy-fixative and the ABC-method, we demonstrate light microscopic immunohistochemical localization of peroxisomal antigens in several rat tissues as well as in human post-mortem liver. 相似文献

This technic was worked out for making permanent mounts of salivary-gland squashes of strains and species of Drosophilidae, which yield material difficult to work with. It includes a prior fixation in a modified Carnoy's fluid, staining in solutions of orcein in 60% or 70% acetic acid, part dehydration in the vapor and liquid of a 95% solution of alcohol, and direct mounting in Euparal by means of the drainage-method. 相似文献

Suspensions of sea urchin embryos spread over the surface of glass slides were attached to the glass by a rapid coagulation of the surface with alcohol. This was done either by dipping the glass slides into absolute alcohol or by a short exposure to alcohol vapor. Thereafter the slides were immediately transferred to the fixative. A suitable procedure includes fixation with Carnoy's fluid (alcohol, chloroform, acetic acid; 6:3:1) and staining with Gomori's hematoxylin after acid hydrolysis. 相似文献

A simple method for staining nerve cells and fibers of the salamander central nervous system is described. The procedure employs Carnoy's fixation followed by Protargol impregnation and Nissl staining. This technique permits the simultaneous observation of intracellular neurofibrils, neuronal processes and basophilic components of the neuron. In addition, it eliminates the need to stain alternate sections with separate procedures to view the various components of the urodele central nervous system. 相似文献

OsO(4) has many advantages over Carnoy's fixative mixture for the Feulgen nuclear staining in the protozoan Tokophrya infusionum. While Carnoy's fluid used prior to the Feulgen reaction produces shrinkage of the macronucleus and coarse clumping of its chromatin bodies, OsO(4) preserves faithfully the size and shape of the macronucleus and its chromatin material. This finding seems to be of special importance in view of the fact that electron microscopy relies on OsO(4) fixation. The satisfactory preservation of structured detail in Feulgen-stained preparations is of importance for the correlation of histochemical and morphological information. 相似文献

The well-know technique of silver staining of the nucleolar organizer (Ag-NOR) is improved in contrast, selectivity and speed when performed with microwave irradiation. The Ag-NOR technique is a very useful tool for studies on the functional morphology and molecular architecture of the nucleolus, and is reputed to be one of the best techniques for diagnosis and prognosis of cancer lesions. To test the generality of the enhancing effects. our study has involved the use of both mammalian and plant cells. Two steps in the process are improved quantitatively by microwave irradiation: fixation and staining itself. Fixation with the ethanol-based reagent, Kryofix, for 3 min in the microwave oven, resulted in good structural preservation at the optical level, and enhanced the contrast and selectivity of silver staining. On the contrary, we found that neither glutaraldehyde fixation, nor a treatment of sections with Carnoy's solution, improved Ag-NOR staining. After an analysis of the effects of the different substances involved in sample preparation, we conclude that ethanol is an essential factor for fixation for nucleolar staining, particularly if aldehydes are eliminated from fixative solutions. The process of staining was performed with a drop of staining solution on a semithin section of plastic-embedded tissue intthe microwave oven for 1 min. Staining under these conditions always improved the visualization of nucleoli, regardless of the fixation procedure. Therefore, microwave irradiation at both steps is recommended for giving the best results. Microwave irradiation probably enhances fixation by controlled heat, whereas the increase in reactivity of the staining solution is a direct effect by the microwaves on the silver ions themselves. We used this method to study nucleolar materials during mitosis in proliferating plant cells. Current applications of Ag-NOR staining can be improved with this technical modification. 相似文献

Effects of different fixatives on beta-galactosidase activity. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

beta-Galactosidase (beta-Gal) staining is widely used to demonstrate specific gene expression during evaluation of gene targets in vivo. This technique is extremely sensitive to fixation. Optimal fixation conditions are necessary to obtain the maximal beta-Gal activity. In this experiment, Carnoy's and three different aldehyde fixatives were used at different temperatures and over different time points. Kidneys from LacZ-stop-human alkaline phosphatase (ZA/P) double reporter mice were used to generate positive material for the experiment. The results show that glutaraldehyde combinative solution (LacZ) produced the most consistent and reliable results. Paraformaldehyde and formaldehyde were effective as fixatives only at 4C for a period of less than 4 hr, and Carnoy's solution destroyed beta-Gal activity. 相似文献

Cetyl pyridinium chloride, 0.5% in 4% aqueous formaldehyde and 5-aminoacridine hydrochloride, 0.4% in 50% aqueous ethanol, have been tested as fixatives for acid mucopolysaccharides in a variety of tissues. These solutions are superior to 4% aqueous formaldehyde, Carnoy's fluid and basic lead acetate for this purpose and also give good nuclear fixation. Tissues containing these mucopolysaccharides are particularly well defined with the acridine-ethanol fixative. 相似文献

A comparison was made of the effects of various fixation and processing conditions upon the antigenicity of myelin basic protein (MBP) in sections of paraffin-embedded optic nerve from the developing albino rat as judged by the unlabeled peroxidase-antiperoxidase technique. The fixatives used were: Perfix, 4% and 2% buffered paraformaldehyde (pH 7.4), 10% buffered formalin (pH 7.4); Bouin's, Clark's, and Carnoy's fixatives, and 20% formalin in a solution of HgCl2 that had been saturated at 1 degrees C. Perfix appeared to be the best fixative for the preservation of morphology and MBP antigenicity during the early stages of myelinogenesis but was not satisfactory during the later stages. The buffered aldehydes were slightly more destructive of MBP antigenicity than was Perfix, but they produced satisfactory results following the first postnatal week. Bouin's fixative was similar in effect to the buffered aldehydes, but nonspecific background staining was higher. HgCl2/formalin, Clark's and Carnoy's fixatives were unsuitable. No differences were noted in staining between material processed for embedding using 5, 30, or 60 min schedules. 相似文献

Summary The authors studied the influence of fixations on the normal hydration of the rabbit cornea and the total amount of acid mucopolysaccharides (AMPS) in the stroma. The following fixatives were used: formol-calcium chloride at 19° C for 24 hours, formolcetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) at 19 and 28° C for 48 hours, Lillie's fixation at 19° C for 24 hours and Carnoy's fluid at 19° C for 30 minutes. The sections of the corneae were stained with Alcian blue, colloidal Fe3+ in the modification according to Rinehart and Abu'l Haj and with toluidine and methylene blue. The amount of AMPS was determined with the method of Rondle and Morgan and the total hydration of the stroma by weighing the corneae before and after using different fixative fluids and by calculation of obtained values on dry weight.The best results were obtained by using formol-CPC at 28° C. At the ordinary room temperature (±19° C) it was the poorest fixation, however, as the corneae in this solution became hydrated. Formol-calcium chloride was the second in the row and it was much better than Lillie's and Carnoy's fluid.The amount of AMPS in the stroma was not essentially changed by the effect of fixatives. Within 24–48 hours formol-CPC at 28° C retained the normal content and formol-calcium chloride caused the 11% decrease of AMPS maximally. The loss of AMPS after other fixatives was minimal.The intensity of staining with cationic dyes in paraffin sections was different after individual fixatives and after the kind of their application and was dependent chiefly on the state of hydration of the corneal stroma: It is impossible to interpret the results of staining reactions in terms of the quantity of AMPS as it was hitherto done. 相似文献

The ordinary Feulgen or acetic-lacmoid squash tech-nic following fixation in freshly made Carnoy's fluid (alcohol, 6: chloroform, 3: glacial acetic acid, 1), provides an easy and reliable method of studying meiosis in ovules. After fixation for 1 day, the material was hardened in 95% ethyl alcohol for 1-2 days and taken to water by gradual hydration. For staining by the Feulgen method, the material was hydrolyzed 8-10 minutes in 1 N HO at 58-60°C., followed by staining in decolorized leuco basic fuchsin for 2 hours. The staining was intensified by transferring the material to water. After 15-20 minutes the water was replaced by 45% acetic acid. For staining by acetic-lacmoid, the ovules after fixation, hardening and hydration were transferred to standard acetic-lacmoid stain to which was added 1 drop of 1 N HCl to every 10 drops of stain. Gentle heat was applied till the stain started to give fumes. After allowing 20 minutes at room temperature the material was transferred to fresh acetic-lacmoid. Some 6-12 ovules were mounted either in a drop of 45% acetic acid or acetic-lacmoid, depending upon the Feulgen or acetic-lacmoid staining respectively. Gentle and repeated tapping over the cover glass by a blunt needle loosened the cells of integument and nucellus and finally left the megaspore mother cells undergoing meiosis, fully exposed to view. The process was carried out under constant observation using the low power of the microscope. The desired amount of flattening was brought about by light pressure over the cover glass and gentle heating. The preparations were made permanent by dehydrating in ethyl alcohol and mounting in Euparal. 相似文献
