The objectives are to: Stabilize the main constituent protein of the tissue specimen as fast as possible to stop autolysis Minimize the degeneration and deformation of the tissue specimen caused by the effects of chemicals and heat during the subsequent specimen preparation process. for Light Microscopy Neutral buffered formalin Formalin solution is used in large quantities as a routine fixative in the preparation of tissue specimens for light microscopic observation. Formalin is decomposed to produce formic acid, which may affect some tissues. This neutral buffered formalin is adjusted to pH 7.4 approximately by the addition of sodium phosphate to formalin to eliminate the effect of acid on tissues. Not only is neutral buffered formalin a superior fixative for routine lab work, it is also beneficial for a number of special purposes. For example, neutral buffered formalin can be used to a certain extent for histochemical detection of enzymes, hemoglobin and other molecules; for fixing mucopolysaccharides, glycogens, neurofibrils and other tissue components that cannot be treated with regular formalin; and for electron mtcroscopy.

The apical epithelial surfaces of mammalian respiratory, gastrointestinal, and reproductive tracts are coated by mucus, a mixture of water, ions, glycoproteins, proteins, and lipids. The purpose of this study was to confirm the presence of mucin production using Haematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) stain as the gold standard and to describe the types of mucins produced in tumors of lung, colon and ovaries using various types of histochemical techniques. Methods: The resection specimens and biopsies from tumours of colon (n=16), ovaries (n=13) and lung (n=5) were included and stained with H&E to determin the histological diagnosis for selecting tissues with mucin production. Slides were stained with PAS, Alcian blue, High iron diamine-Alcian blue, Meyer’s mucicarmine and Alcian blue-PAS to demonstrate the mucin production and to identify types of mucins. Results: In the present study we observed predominance of acid mucins over neutral mucins. In addition in these cases we observed sulphomucin predominating over sialomucin. Conclusion: Mucin histochemistry can effectively determine the types of mucins. Keywords: Haematoxylin and Eosin; Periodic acid schiff; High iron Materials and Methods diamine; Alcian blue Paraffin embedded sections were prepared using automatic tissue Introduction processor, followed by preparation of paraffin block using our embedding station.

Path., 1976, 29, 22-26 Expenence with the sodium sulphate-Alcian Blue stain for amyloid in cardiac pathology ARIELA POMERANCE, GERARD SLAVIN, AND JOSEPHINE McWATT From the Department ofHistopathology, Northwick Park Hospital and Clinical Research Centre, Harrow, Middx. SYNOPSIS The sodium sulphate-Alcian Blue (SAB) method, which stains amyloid green, was evalu- ated in 220 hearts from elderly patients. The technique proved superior to the Congo red, crystal violet, and thioflavine T methods used either singly or as a battery for the demonstration of cardiac amyloid. Amyloid was easily identified under the x 3 objective, even in small amounts. A few non-amyloid components stained varying shades of green but were easily distinguished on morpho- logical grounds. No false positive or equivocal reactions occurred, and in particular elastic laminae and paravascular connective tissue were not tinctorially confused with amyloid. The SAB stain is technically simple and consistently reproducible, and no special light source is required for examination. An additional advantage in cardiac pathology is the simultaneous demonstration of any fibrosis, basophilic myofibre degeneration, tissue mast cells and mucoid degeneration of valves present. copyright. Amyloid deposition is a well recognized association examined from each heart, one from the atrial of ageing in many animal species, including man. septum and one from each ventricle.

Medium for the culture was a combination of alpha-modified Eagle's medium, 10 % fetal bovine serum, and 1 % L-glutamine. The group A (n=10) applied undecalcified nacreous powder alone, whereas the group B (n=10) applied only decalcified nacreous powder.

It was therefore decided to study the HISTOPHOTOMETRIC OBSERVATIONS These were carried goblet cells of the large bowel both in normal sub- out on 13 biopsy specimens from normal subjects and on jects and in patients with ulcerative colitis to see if 10 from patients with ulcerative colitis.

  • Mixture of Carbol Fuchsin and Alcian Blue Staining of Gastric Tissue for the Identification of Helicobacter Pylori and Goblet Cell Intestinal Metaplasia
    MIXTURE OF C/A STAINING FOR THE IDENTIFICATION OF HP AND IM MIXTURE OF CARBOL FUCHSIN AND ALCIAN BLUE STAINING OF GASTRIC TISSUE FOR THE IDENTIFICATION OF HELICOBACTER PYLORI AND GOBLET CELL INTESTINAL METAPLASIA Sirisanpang Yodavudh1, Siriwan Tangjitgamol2 and Supalarp Puangsa-art3 1Department of Pathology, Chareonkrung Pracharak Hospital, Bangkok; 2Department of Anatomical Pathology and Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Bangkok Metropolitan Administration Medical College and Vajira Hospital, Bangkok; 3Department of Tropical Hygine, Faculty of Tropical Medicine, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand Abstract. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the role of the mixture of carbol fuchsin and alcian blue stain in the diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori (HP) and goblet cell intestinal metaplasia (IM) in comparison to the more commonly used Giemsa and hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stains. Pathological blocks of gastric tissues obtained from January 2006 to December 2007 were recut and processed for Giemsa and a mixture of carbol fuchsin and alcian blue stains. Clinical data regarding the patients were collected and previous slides stain with H&E from gastric tissues were reviewed.The Giemsa and the mixture of carbol fuchsin and alcian blue stains were studied by a pathologist who was blinded to the pathological and clinical data. Direct comparisons were made between the stains for diagnosis of HP. Of 423 cases studied the concordance rate was 97.8% (kappa value=0.947, p< 0.05). Using the mixture of carbol fuchsin and alcian blue stain, 4.3 % of goblet cell IM which were not detected by H&E stain were additionally identified. The prevalences of HP infection diagnosed by Giemsa, the mixture of carbol fuchsin and alcian blue, and H&E stains were 72.1%, 72.3%, and 71%, respectively.
