Title: A sensitive method for the histochemical demonstration of vicinal diols of carbohydrates. Author: Nakamura M, Kitamura H, Yamada K. Journal: Histochem J; 1985 Apr; 17(4):477-85. PubMed ID: 4044282. Abstract: A new sensitive method has been established for the histochemical demonstration of vicinal diols of carbohydrates in light microscopy. It consists of a periodic acid-thiocarbohydrazide-silver proteinate (PA-TCH-SP) sequence followed by physical development. The new method is more sensitive than the PA-TCH-SP and periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) methods employed hitherto. Its specificity is sufficient.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
