title: Sensitization of topo-optical reactions in showing tissue glycosaminoglycans of low local concentration.
abstract: The intensity and sensitivity of inversive topo-optical reactions of GAGs can be increased by acetylation prior to staining with cationic dyes. The combination renders possible the polarization optical analysis of connective tissue matrices containing small amount of GAGs.
