[Non-specific dye absorption studies in quantitative cytochemical reactions with alkalic fast green and heparin-alcian blue (model experiment)].

Stöchiometria of the alkalic Fast green and Heparin-alcianblue was studied in model experiment by the aid of integrating microdensitometer. The changes of the optical density in cases of Heparin-alcian-blue occurred to be proportional to the histon quantity, in cases of staining with alkalic Fast green nonspecific dye-absorption was revealed. Results of the model experiment indicate that in quantitative cytochemical studies Heparin-alcian-blue should be preferred to alkalic Fast green.
