Membranes are formed by allowing a drop of collodion-acetone solution to come into contact with the surface of warm sugar solution in a petri dish. Pollen is germinated upon the smooth areas of the membrane when all traces of acetone have evaporated. Semipermanent preparations are made by isolating the pollinated area of the membrane, floating it onto a slide, and, after the removal of excess sugar solution, adding a drop of acetic-stain fixative, followed by an albumenized cover slip. The preparation can be made permanent by inverting a slide in a mixture of 1 part glacial acetic acid and 3 parts absolute alcohol, when the collodion membrane will dissolve and allow the cover slip and adhering grains to fall free. The cover slip is then passed through absolute alcohol (2 changes), xylene, and mounted in neutral mountant on a clean slide. By substituting a drop of the alcohol-acetic acid mixture in place of acetic-stain fixative, the grains adhering to the cover slip may be stained by the Feulgen method. 相似文献

Preparations obtained by the aceto-iron-haematoxylin technique reported previously (Stain Tech., 37, 27-30, 1962) can be made relatively permanent either by ringing the cover slip with Karo corn syrup, or by mounting the squash in this syrup after separating slide and cover slip by the solid CO2 freezing technique. In the latter procedure, both slide and cover slip may be placed briefly in 45% acetic acid for further differentiation of the stain, then recombined with a drop of syrup. 相似文献

Samples of tissue with water-soluble substances are lyophilized and doubly-infiltrated with parlodion and paraffin. Sections are mounted on an adhesive-coated cover slip with chloroform. The reverse side of the cover slip is coated successively with a thin layer of Harleco resin and a thick layer of Kodak “Opaque”. A corner of the cover slip is broken off as a marker. The cover slip is assembled with a covering glass slide on a nuclear track plate (Kodak NTB-2) with protective coating, the section being in contact with the emulsion, and held in place during radioactive exposure. Before development, the cover slip and plate are exposed briefly to light and then disassembled. Following development of the plate and removal of the layer of resin and opaque from the cover slip, staining of the section is optional. Lining up of the section with its autoradiograph can be accurate within 1-5μ. 相似文献

Ultrathin sections for electron microscopy may be prepared from smears or squashes embedded in methacrylate. The cover slip or glass slide with the attached fixed cellular material is passed through alcohols to methacrylate monomer and finally to monomer containing a catalyst. The portion of the smear to be sectioned is covered with a gelatin capsule containing partially polymerized methacrylate. When polymerization is completed at 47°C, the hardened block is separated from the cover slip and trimmed under the compound microscope so as to encompass the desired area. Photographs are made of the intact smear to afford a basis for identification of cellular materials in electron micrographs of the individual ultrathin sections. 相似文献

The following rapid but reliable method of making permanent preparations from temporary mounts has proved to be very useful.Pollen mother-cell smears: Smeared anthers are treated hi the usual way with Belting's acetocarmine, except that the cover slip is left off. When correct differentiation is attained the stain is thoroly washed off with 50% acetic acid and the slide flooded with dioxan. This is followed by 2 changes of dioxan for 2 minutes each. A drop of Canada balsam dissolved in dioxan is added and a cover slip applied. In cases where a cover slip has been used at the acetocarmine stage it can be floated off in a staining jar of 50% acetic acid and dehydration with dioxan carried out as above.Insect salivary gland chromosome smears: The glands are crushed under a cover slip in acetocarmine on a slide coated with dried egg albumen. After 20 minutes the area around the cover slip is flooded with 50% acetic acid and the cover slip floats loose so that it can be removed. The above described dioxan dehydrating procedure is then employed.Squash preparations: Root tips are fixed in some suitable fixative and the Feulgen technic applied. The stained root tips can either be dehydrated by passing thru 3 changes of dioxan and mounting in dioxan-balsam where they are divided into small longitudinal sections by sharp needles, or they can be put immediately into a mixture of 1 part of 50% acetic acid to 1 part of corn syrup where shredding with needles is carried out. A cover slip is put on and separation of the cells completed by tamping or by applying pressure to the cover. This squash method is useful with anthers which are difficult to smear when in the early prophase stages of meiosis. 相似文献

Anthers of small chromosome plants (Antirrhinum, Brassica, Capsicum etc.) were fixed 12 hours or longer at 0–3° C. in: ferric acetate in glacial acetic acid (sat. soln.), 1 part; absolute alcohol, 3 parts. They were transferred to: ferric acetate (sat. soln.) in 45% acetic acid, 3 parts; 45% acetic acid, 5 parts; 1% formalin (aq.), 2 parts, and allowed to remain 5–15 minutes at room temperature for mordanting. The amount of iron introduced into the specimens was controllable by the time in the mordanting fluid. After rinsing the specimen in 45% acetic acid and macerating in a drop of Belling's acetocarmine on a slide, a cover slip was applied followed by warming and pressing with blotting paper to flatten the pollen mother cells and expel excess stain. Preparations stored temporarily by sealing the edges of the cover slip with rubber solution were best made permanent by removing the cover slip after 1–2 days, dehydrating and mounting in euparal. 相似文献

Methods are proposed for staining plant chromosomes with the dye brilliant cresyl blue, and for making these stained preparations permanent by using polyvinyl alcohol mounting medium.
The stain, which is composed of 2% brilliant cresyl blue in 45% aqueous acetic or propionic acid, is used with fixed material in making smear preparations. The technics for staining are similar to those employed in the aceto-carmine method.
The mounting medium is made by mixing 56% polyvinyl alcohol, which is diluted in water to the consistency of thick molasses, with 22% lactic acid and 22% phenol by volume. The permanent slides are made by floating off the cover slip of the temporary slide in 70% alcohol, then applying the mounting medium and replacing the cover slip.
The chief advantages of the methods described are:
1)The preparation of the stain is rapid and simple. The batch of stain will be good with the first try.
2)The staining procedure in some instances is shorter than when using aceto-carmine.
3)The stain shows a high degree of specificity for nuclear structures and gives better results than aceto-carmine when used on certain plant tissues.
4)A minimum number of cells is lost in making the slides permanent when using polyvinyl alcohol mounting medium as the slide and cover slip are run through only one solution prior to mounting.
5)The mounting medium dries rapidly and this shortens the time required before critical examination of the permanent mounts can be made. 相似文献

Epidermis stripped from either fresh or fixed plant organs, or sections of paraffin-embedded or fresh material are placed on a slide and covered with a drop or two of iron-acetocarmine. The stain is intensified by warming the slide over a flame. After a few minutes a drop or two of a saturated solution of Sudan black B in 45% acetic acid is added and a cover slip applied. The preparations cannot be made permanent, but last a few weeks if sealed with a compound such as gum mastic-paraffin, or if the combined stain is drained off and a drop of Karo syrup is added before the cover slip is applied. The acetocarmine produces its usual staining effects, i.e., nuclei dark red and some components of the cytoplasm of certain cells a less intense red. The Sudan black B colors lipid structures an intense blue. 相似文献

Many types of smear slides can be made permanent rapidly and effectively by substituting for the usual dehydration series a single-step process of freezing the slide on a block of dry ice, placing it immediately in 95% or absolute alcohol, and then mounting it. Advantages of the technic are its speed, the ease of separation of cover slip from slide with a minimum loss of cells, and the superiority of the resulting permanent slides. 相似文献

Acetic orcein stain may be dropped onto the specimen before applying a cover slip. This single reagent reveals cercarial and metacercarial structures that would otherwise be made visible only by complicated and time consuming procedures. 相似文献

Removal of the cover slip from squash preparations, for coating with auto-radiographic emulsion, or other purposes, is made easy if squashing is performed with a piece of Scotch double-coated adhesive tape No. 665, used as a cover slip. The material to be squashed is placed on a slide lightly coated with an adhesive consisting of 1% gelatin with 0.1% chrome alum added. The piece of tape is applied with the surface originally on the outside of the roll next to the specimen. Specimens should be soaked before squashing in aqueous 45% acetic acid, with or without added dye, such as carmine or orcein. After squashing, the tape is easily removed without damage to the cells. This allows autoradiographic emulsion to be applied, or, unstained material can be stained after squashing by technics suitable for microtome sections. 相似文献

The mechanics of root reinforcement have been described satisfactorily for a single root or several roots passing a potential
slip plane and verified by field experiments. Yet, precious little attempts have been made to apply these models to the hillslope
scale pertinent to landsliding at which variations in soil and vegetation become important. On natural slopes positive pore
pressures occur often at the weathering depth of the soil profile. At this critical depth root reinforcement is crucial to
avert slope instability. This is particularly relevant for the abandoned slopes in the European part of the Mediterranean
basin where root development has to balance the increasing infiltration capacity during re-vegetation. Detailed investigations
related to root reinforcement were made at two abandoned slopes susceptible to landsliding located in the Alcoy basin (SE
Spain). On these slopes semi-natural vegetation, consisting of a patchy herbaceous cover and dispersed Aleppo pine trees,
has established itself. Soil and vegetation conditions were mapped in detail and large-scale, in-situ direct shear tests on the topsoil and pull-out tests performed in order to quantify root reinforcement under different vegetation
conditions. These tests showed that root reinforcement was present but limited. Under herbaceous cover, the typical reinforcement
was in the order of 0.6 kPa while values up to 18 kPa were observed under dense pine cover. The tests indicate that fine root
content and vegetation conditions are important factors that explain the root reinforcement of the topsoil. These findings
were confirmed by the simulation of the direct shear tests by means of an advanced root reinforcement model developed in FLAC
2D. Inclusion of the root distribution for the observed vegetation cover mimics root failure realistically but returns over-optimistic
estimates of the root reinforcement. When the root reinforcement is applied with this information at the hillslope scale under
fully saturated and critical hydrological conditions, root pull-out becomes the dominant root failure mechanism and the slip
plane is located at the weathering depth of the soil profile where root reinforcement is negligible. The safety factors increase
only slightly when roots are present but the changes in the surface velocity at failure are more substantial. Root reinforcement
on these natural slopes therefore appears to be limited to a small range of critical hydrological conditions and its mitigating
effect occurs mainly after failure. 相似文献

The culture chamber consists of two metal plates held together by four short screws, a thin (film-type) electrical heating unit, a silicone rubber gasket and two cover slips. The order of assembly is bottom plate, heating element, first cover slip, gasket, second cover slip, and top plate. Syringe needles, one containing a thermistor, and others for supply and removal of fluid are inserted into the chamber through the gasket. Temperature is controlled by electrical connections through a Thermistemp temperature controller. 相似文献

This paper presents an entropy production mapping (EPM) method for detecting a higher-order structure change of a stretched and immobilized DNA molecule on a cover slip through measuring and mapping an increment of the orientational entropy (defined as "entropy production") of the Watson-Crick base pairs by the interaction of biological factors such as proteins; the stretched DNA molecule undergoes a higher-order structure change by the interaction, so that the orientational entropy at the interaction regions increases because the alignment of the base pairs is reduced at the regions. We demonstrated the utility of this "EPM method" by using a histone-lambda DNA system. It is revealed that the histone interaction region is clearly distinguished from no interaction regions on a stretched lambda DNA molecule immobilized on a cover slip. 相似文献

A technic, some fundamentals of which were first worked out on brome grass, has been considerably extended and adapted to the somatic chromosomes of salmon. Fresh salmon eggs were quickly pierced in 45% acetic acid and fixed therein for 4 minutes. The eggs were then placed in N HCl at 60°C. for 8 minutes and thereafter transferred to Feulgen stain for 30 to 45 minutes. Subsequently, each stained embryo was dissected out and divided in two, each half being placed on a slide in a drop of acetocarmine stain. The pieces were well macerated and, after covering with a cover slip, maceration was completed by tapping. Heavy pressure was gradually applied to the cover slip in order to flatten the chromosome complements. A square screw-type laboratory hose clamp was then used to maintain this pressure while a liquid gelatin seal was applied around the edges. The slide, with the clamp on, was placed in the refrigerator overnight. Before the slide was scanned, the clamp was removed permanently. After each scanning period the slide was returned to the refrigerator. Photomicrographs of well-spread chromosomes in one optical plane were enlarged and tracings made from them. These tracings together with the photomicrographs were used for chromosome analysis. 相似文献

A procedure for elimination of cytoplasmic debris from Vicia faba root tip cells is: (1) a root tip previously fixed in 3:1 absolute alcohol-acetic acid and stained by the Feulgen method is placed on a slide and squashed in a small drop of water, (2) a cover slip is applied and the cells are flattened with a hand-operated lever device supplying 35 pounds pressure onto a 22 × 22 mm cover glass, (3) the slide is quick-frozen, the cover slip is removed, and the slide is dropped immediately into water, (4) the slide is cleared through an alcohol-xylene dehydration series and permanently mounted. The significant result of this procedure is the consistent presence of clear, flat cells showing excellent definition of chromosomes. 相似文献
