The purpose of this study was to compare the level of immunogold labeling of deplasticized acrylic sections and deplasticized epoxy sections. Pure protein gels of IgG, albumin and thyroglobulin were produced by glutaraldehyde fixation and embedded in non-crosslinked acrylic resin (Technovit 9100) and epoxy resin (Epon 812), respectively. Ultrathin sections of acrylic and epoxy resin were separately...
The purpose of this study was to compare the level of immunogold labelling of both osmicated and non-osmicated epoxy sections when subjected to different antigen retrieval, etching and incubation temperature for the antibodies. Pure IgG protein gels were produced by glutaraldehyde fixation, eventually postfixed with 1% osmium tetroxide, and embedded in epoxy resin. Ultrathin sections were antigen...
The aim was to examine how the pH in the antigen retrieval medium (citrate) affects the yield of immunogold labeling of epoxy sections. Renal swine tissue with glomerular immune complex deposits with reactivity against IgG was embedded in epoxy resin. Prior to immunogold labeling with anti-IgG, ultrathin sections from these blocks were exposed to antigen retrieval by heating in citrate solution (pH...
The purpose of this study was to compare the level of immunogold labeling of epoxy sections when the sections were subjected to antigen retrieval at different temperatures. Renal swine tissue with glomerular immune complex deposits with reactivity against IgG and C3 was embedded in epoxy resin. Sections from these blocks were exposed to antigen retrieval by heating in citrate solution at temperatures...
The study's purpose was to obtain improved ''deplasticizing'' of epoxy sections for immunoelectron microscopy. Epoxy-embedded renal swine tissue with immune complex deposits was used. Ultrathin sections were mounted on uncoated grids or on carbon-stabilized formvar grids. The sections were exposed to different concentrations of sodium ethoxide, and they were subjected to immunogold labeling with anti-IgG...
The purpose of this study was to compare the intensity of the immunogold labeling of H 2 O 2 -treated and heated epoxy sections. Renal swine tissue with glomerular immune complex deposits with reactivity against IgG was embedded in epoxy resin. Immunogold labeling with anti-IgG was performed on sections from these blocks. Some of these sections were treated by H 2 O 2 ...
The purpose of this study was to examine if the presence of para-phenylendiamine (PPD) in the tissue processing could increase the yield of immunogold labeling of the epoxy sections. Renal swine tissue with glomerular immune complex deposits with reactivity against IgG was embedded in epoxy resin. PPD was added (1) at the beginning of the dehydration, (2) in the first step with propylene oxide, (3)...
The purpose of this study was to compare the yield of immunogold labeling of heated epoxy sections with the yield of labeling of deplasticized epoxy sections, and to compare the immunolabeling of deplasticized high-accelerator epoxy sections and deplasticized low-accelerator epoxy sections. Renal swine tissue and human thyroid tissue were embedded in both high- and low-accelerator epoxy resin and...
The purpose of this study was to examine the intensity of the immunogold labeling of kappa light chains as single molecules and as parts of whole immunoglobulin molecules in LR-White sections and epoxy sections both practically and theoretically. Human renal tissues including deposits of kappa light chains and immune complex deposits of IgA were embedded in both LR-White resin and epoxy resin. Immunogold...
The purpose of this study was to examine how antigen retrieval affected the yield of immunogold labeling on epoxy sections based on embedding with different amounts of accelerator. The concentration of accelerator DMP-30 (tri(dimethyl amino methyl) phenol) was varied in the range of 0–8% in the processing of the tissue for epoxy embedding. Immunogold labeling was performed on epoxy sections and LR-White...
The purpose of this study was to examine how different incubation times with different concentrations of bovine serum albumin (BSA) affect the amount of non-specific immunogold labeling on epoxy sections and LR-White sections. Immunogold labeling was performed on epoxy sections and LR-White sections of renal tissue with IgG-deposits and fibrin clots, and the antibodies used were anti-IgG and anti-fibrinogen,...
The purpose of this study was to examine how the intensity of the immunogold labeling on epoxy sections was affected by the use of propylene oxide as an agent in addition to ethanol in the dehydration and infiltration, and also to examine the effect on the immunogold labeling by adding small amounts of propylene oxide to the embedding mixture. Increased knowledge of the mechanism for antigen detection...
The purpose of this study was to improve the immunogold labeling of epoxy sections and to increase our knowledge of the mechanism for how antigens become immunolabeled on resin sections. Tissues from pancreas, thyroid and fibrin clots were embedded in an epoxy resin and LR-White. The epoxy mixture was composed and treated in different ways, especially with respect to altered amounts of accelerator...
The purpose of this study was to predict the ratio of immunogold labeling of LR-White sections and epoxy sections using theoretical methods. Tissues used in the experiments were pancreas, pituitary, kidney, thyroid and fibrin. Antigens used as test proteins were glucagon, somatostatin, thyroglobulin, chromogranin A, ACTH (adrenocorticotropt hormone), amyloid A and fibrinogen. These are proteins of...
The purpose of this study was to predict the ratio of immunogold labeling of deplasticized epoxy sections and LR-White sections on the basis of theoretical considerations. Tissues used in the experiments were pancreas, pituitary, kidney, thyroid, and fibrin. Antigens used as test proteins were glucagon, somatostatin, thyroglobulin, chromogranin A, ACTH (=Adrenocroticotropt hormone), amyloid A, and...
The purpose of this investigation was to explain why deplasticizing of epoxy sections gives higher immunogold labeling than non-deplasticizing. The methods used were the following: (1) Comparison of the ratio of immunogold labeling of deplasticized and non-deplasticized sections with gold particles of different sizes and comparison of this ratio with respect to sections of different thickness, (2)...
