Formaldehyde-ozone-induced fluorescence in isolated gastrin granules.
In several mammals the antral gastrin cells display characteristic formaldehyde-ozone-induced fluorescence (375/500-520 nm). Such fluorescence is also given by gastrinoma cells. Gastrin granules, isolated from gastrinomas and identified by immunofluorescence and electron microscopy, were found to show intense formaldehyde-ozone-induced fluorescence.
