Abstract:Three dual staining methods were established for the histochemical detection of saccharide residues and acidic groupings of carbohydrates in light microscopy. The first method consisted of combined lectin-gold silver (LT-G-S) and alcian blue (AB) pH 1.0 techniques, whereas the second staining technique was composed of LT-G-S and AB pH 2.5 procedures. These two techniques were found to color saccharide residues and acidic groupings of carbohydrates in black and blue shades respectively, which exhibited a high c… Show more
