Phosphoric acid-its use in the extraction of RNA: staining of DNA in mammalian tissue sections.

This communication presents highly satisfactory methods for the demonstration of DNA in animal materials. The method involves selective extraction of RNA with concentrated, 90% or 75% phosphoric acid of 5 degrees C for 20, 40 and 120 min, respectively, followed by staining with aqueous solutions of basic dyes, such as setoglaucine, setocyanine, pinakryptol green 2) and alcoholic aniline blue without SO2. Perfect blue nuclei were seen when staining was performed with aqueous solutions of setoglaucine and setocyanine at pHs 3.5 and 4.0 to 4.5, respectively. Sections of tissues from which RNA has been extracted and then hydrolysed in 6 N HCl at 28 degrees C for 15 min followed by staining with these dyes also revealed perfect colouration of the nuclei. Acid-hydrolysed sections when stained with alcoholic aniline blue-SW2 prepared with N HCl and sodium thiosulphate revealed nuclei of magenta colour, and sections from whcih RNA has been extracted and then hydrolysed in hydrochloric acid and stained with this dye-reagent revealed nuclei of purplish colour. Sections of tissues fixed in Carnoy, 10% buffered neutral formalin as well as paraformaldehyde were found to be most suitable for staining with these dyes. The in situ absorption spectra of nuclei stained with aqueous solutions of setoglaucine, setocyanine and alcoholic aniline blue without SO2, after extraction of RNA as well as those of nuclei in tissue sections from which RNA has been extracted and then acid-hydrolysed and stained with alcoholic aniline blue-SO2 have been presented. Also presented herein are absorption data of nuclei in tissue sections which wee hydrolysed in hydrochloric acid and then stained with alcoholic aniline blue-SO2. Some implications of these findings have been discussed.

Electrophoresis in the presence of Coomassie brilliant blue R-250 stains polyacrylamide gels during protein fractionation.

A method of staining polyacrylamide gels in which the dye is electrophoresed together with the sample is proposed. The method cuts short and simplifies the conventional electrophoresis procedure by eliminating the separate poststaining step. In the gels run in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate, the method produces protein staining patterns which are quantitatively identical to the ones obtained by conventional staining procedure. Additional advantages of the method are easy control over the degree of staining and homogenous staining independent of the gel thickness and concentration of the dye.

Mass spectrometry compatibility of two-dimensional gel protein stains.

As proteomic technology evolves, protein staining sensitivity is constantly being improved, enabling researchers to better visualize the proteome of their system. The current challenge is to balance the limits of detection of protein visualization with those of the mass spectrometric methods. In this report, mass spectra generated from human serum or rat liver proteins stained with either colloidal Coomassie blue, Daiichi silver, SYPRO Orange, SYPRO Red, SYPRO Ruby, or SYPRO Tangerine are compared. It has been concluded that the newest generation of fluorescent protein stains, compared with traditional staining methods, are more compatible to matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) methods. The number of database matches obtained using each mass spectrometry method and the percent sequence coverage obtained from trypsin digested proteins stained using these six methods is provided.

A fluorescent natural product for ultra sensitive detection of proteins in one-dimensional and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis.

Lightning Fast is a sensitive fluorescence-based stain for detecting proteins in one-dimensional and two-dimensional polyacrylamide electrophoresis gels. It contains the fluorophore epicocconone from the fungus Epicoccum nigrum that interacts noncovalently with sodium dodecyl sulfate and protein. Stained proteins can be excited optimally by near-ultraviolet light of about 395 nm or with visible light of about 520 nm. The stain can be excited using a range of sources used in image analysis systems including UVA (ca. 365 nm) and UVB (ca. 302 nm) transilluminators; Xenon-arc lamps; 488 nm and 457 nm Argon-ion lasers; 473 nm and 532 nm neodymium: yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) solid-state lasers; 543 nm helium-neon lasers, and emerging violet, blue and green diode lasers. Maximum fluorescence emission of the dye is at approximately 610 nm. The limit of detection in one-dimensional gels stained with Lightning Fast protein gel stain is less than 100 pg of protein, rivaling the current limits of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS). Lightning Fast was found to be considerably more sensitive than SYPRO Ruby, SYPRO Orange, silver and Coomassie Brilliant Blue G-250 in matched experiments. Staining takes as little as 3.5 h and stained proteins displayed quantitative linearity over more than four orders of magnitude, thereby allowing visualization of entire proteomes. Lightning Fast protein gel staining is compatible with subsequent peptide mass fingerprinting using MALDI-MS and Edman-based sequencing chemistry.

Confocal microscopy of Tomes' granular layer in dog premolar teeth.

Tomes' granular layer is the hypomineralized area of radicular dentin, but knowledge concerning it is limited. The present study was designed to investigate the structural characteristics of Tomes' granular layer in the dog's teeth by confocal microscopy. Permanent premolars of four beagles, two at 7 months and the other two at 14 months of age, were used for observation. During premolar root formation, the 7-month-old dogs were injected with calcein and alizarin red S for vital staining of dentin, and ground sections of the teeth were prepared. Both ground and decalcified-paraffin sections were made from the teeth of the 14-month-old dogs and stained with basic fuchsin or with hematoxylin and eosin. All sections were examined by fluorescence and confocal microscopy. In the ground sections, granules of Tomes' layer and dentinal tubules were stained with basic fuchsin and with calcein. The granules of Tomes' layer stained with calcein were seen only near the labeling lines by calcein. The granules of Tomes' layer appeared as bright spots in cross sections, and as lines in longitudinal sections. When the sections were cut tangentially through the surface of dentin, the granules of Tomes' layer showed a reticular structure. Most of the dentinal tubules were seen to pass between the granules and terminated in the dentin-cementum junction. Looped tubules were not found in this area. In the paraffin sections stained with hematoxylin and eosin, extracellular matrix of dentin showed fluorescence of various intensities and dentinal tubules appeared dark. At the surface of the radicular dentin, the granules of Tomes' layer appeared as fluorescent fibers running parallel to the surface of dentin in the longitudinal sections. The fibers appeared as bright spots in the cross sections and as a mesh in the tangential sections. In the periodontal ligament, collagen fibers showed intense fluorescence, whereas most cells were negative. From these results we conclude that Tomes' granular layer of dog's teeth may be the collagen fiber bundles that remained uncalcified or hypocalcified within the radicular dentin.

Sex determination from buccal mucosa and hair root by the combined treatment of quinacrine staining and the fluorescent Feulgen reaction using a single specimen.

In order to determine sex using a single specimen, buccal mucosa and hair roots obtained from male and female individuals were used. The specimens were first stained with quinacrine for the detection of the Y-chromatin, and subsequently were stained by the fluorescent Feulgen reaction using acriflavine for the detection of the X-chromatin. In the male specimens, the frequency of fluorescent spots of quinacrine-positive bodies was high, whereas that of acriflavine-positive spots was low. On the other hand, in the female specimens, the frequency of quinacrine-positive spots was very low, while that of the acriflavine-positive spots was high. These specimens were air-dried and were allowed to stand at room temperature for periodical observations. The result was that sex difference was distinguishable for 4 months by the combined treatment method.

A comparison of methods for staining tubercle bacilli in histological sections.

The Ziehl-Neelsen stain is compared with three alternative methods of staining tubercle bacilli in paraffin sections: Fite's method (1938); a modification by Armstrong and Price (1947) of Fite's method; and a fluorescent method using the auramine-phenol stain. The fluorescent method was found to be the most effective of the four methods and its use is recommended as a routine tool in diagnostic histopathology.

Effects of plaque disclosing agents on esthetic restorative materials used in pediatric dentistry.

The aim of study was to evaluate the color stability of tooth-colored restorative materials usually used in pediatric dentistry after the application of two plaque disclosing agents. Twenty specimens of each material: a resin-modified glass ionomer, a composite resin and an ion-releasing composite resin, were prepared. Baseline color evaluation was performed, samples were exposed to the plaque disclosing agents: a basic fuchsin solution and a fluorescent dye, and new color evaluations were made. The resin-modified glass ionomer stained with basic fuchsin presented the greatest color change in the present study, and the fluorescent dye did not show statistically significant changes among the restorative materials. In conclusion, basic fuchsin dyes should be carefully used in children with a great number of tooth-colored restorations.
