Iodination of cell membranes results in cytologic fixation.
Cells grown as adhering monolayers have been iodinated using the lactoperoxidase technique with glucose and glucose oxidase instead of H2O2. A high degree of cytologic fixation, as evidenced by electron microscopy, resulted from this treatment even in the absence of lactoperoxidase.
