Autofluorescence and induced fluorescence in Epon embedded tissue sections.
The autofluorescence of tissue components in Epon semithin sections depends on the exciting wavelength, section thickness, and the structure under observation. The degree of autofluorescence emission of a given component affects the fluorescence reaction induced by fluorochromes, a feature which must be taken into account when fluorescence microscopy is applied to the study of Epon sections.
