PROTOCOLLO FOSFATASI ACIDA

PRINCIPLE:

The complex naphthol, naphthol acid phosphate, is hydrolyzed by acid phosphatases presenti in the tissue, e napthol derivatives sono therby produced. The naphthol derivatives couple con the unstable diazonium salt, hexazonium pararosanilin, to produce a red azo dye to mark the site of enzyme activity.

SPECIMEN REQUIRED:

Snap frozen human striated muscoli. (Use the isopentane freezing method described elsewhere.)

Controls:

Use prostate gland as a positive control. For a negative control, eliminate the enzymatic substrate.

METHOD:

Fixation: None, use snap frozen tissue.

Technique: Cut 10 - 16 micron (12 µm) sections in cryostat from snap frozen Biopsia. Attach one o più sections to a No.1½ 22 mm squsono coverslip.

Colorazioneing Procedure:

1. Place coverslips con sections in Baker's Solution in a columbia Colorazioneing dish (Thomas Scientific #8542-C12) for 5 minutes at room temperature.

2. Wash con three exchanges of tap o deionized H2O.

3. Add incubation solution e Colorazione for at least one (1) ore at room temperature in a dark place.

4. Wash con three exchanges of tap o deionized H2O.

5. Dehydrate (fairly rapidly) in ascending alcohols (50%,70%,80%,95% x 2, 100% x 2) in columbia Colorazioneing dish(jar)s - Thomas Scientific #8542-E30.

6. Clear con at least 2 changes of xylene also in a columbia Colorazioneing dish(jar) - Thomas Scientific #8542-E30

7. Mount con PERMOUNT o another synthetic organic mounting medium.

Results:

A red azo dye indicates sites of acid phosphatase activity.
