Perfusion fixation of trout kidney with picric-acid: formaldehyde: acetic acid: ethanol mixture was compared with other methods as a fixative for staining with the alcian-blue PAS technique. Perfusion fixation gave conspicuously better results for light microscopical purposes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
