Abstract: | Paraffin sections of tissues fixed in absolute alcohol or Carnoy's fluid were mordanted in a 1% aqueous solution of phosphomolybdic acid, stained in saturated solutions of Sudan black B, acetylated Sudan black, various solvent and basic dyes in 70% ethyl alcohol for 5 min at room temperature, dehydrated in alcohol and covered in Permount. Sudan black B and other dyes with basic groups stained basement membranes, reticulum and collagen fibers intensely. Acetylated Sudan black, Sudan IV and oil red 0 did not color any tissue structures. Control sections, without pretreatment, did not bind Sudan black B. These findings indicate interaction between basic groups of the dye and free acid groups of phosphomolybdic acid. |
