[Improvement of the method of staining cationic proteins of the lysosomes of polymorphonuclear leukocytes in laboratory animals and man].

Some methodological drawbacks of the previously offered by the author method for speedy staining of lysosomal cation proteins have been eliminated. The method is shown to be applicable for histochemical staining of lysosome cation proteins of human polymorphonuclear leucocytes. Staining is carried out on blood smears and preparations-impressions from the surface of incision on the organ under study. The improved method for staining of cation proteins can be used in determining the fate of cytophagous bacteria, in cytochemistry of cation proteins of polymorphonuclear leucocytes, in detecting vital and perished bacteria in inflammation foci in bacterial infectious processes.
