Remarks on the usefulness of toluidine blue staining for RNA cytophotometry in plastic embedded tissues.
The study demonstrates the usefulness of water-soluble plastic resins for the cytological quantification of RNA contents after toluidine blue staining. In this way shrinkage artefacts in delicate tissues are avoided and more exact cytophotometrical results can be obtained from embryological material.
