Patterns of Hyaluronan Staining Are Modified by Fixation Techniques
1 Aug 1997
Abstract excerpt
The apparent intensity of hyaluronan (HA) staining in tissue sections can vary as a function of fixation techniques. We examined the histochemical distribution of HA in normal human skin using an HA-specific binding peptide derived from bovine nasal cartilage. The HA, particularly in the dermis, was best preserved in sections fixed in 10% acid-formalin with 70% ethanol. In contrast, sections fixed in the routine...
