Negative staining of rat tail tendon collagen fibrils with uranyl formate appears to reveal more detail in the axial banding pattern than any other positive or negative staining method hitherto employed. In addition, uranyl formate and other uranyl solutions appear to reveal fine, closely spaced, longitudinal filaments which may represent the individual tropocollagen molecules.
用甲酸铀对大鼠尾腱胶原纤维进行负染色,与迄今使用的任何其他正染色或负染色方法相比,似乎能在轴向条纹图案中揭示更多细节。此外,甲酸铀和其他铀溶液似乎能揭示出细小、间距紧密的纵向细丝,这些细丝可能代表单个原胶原分子。
