A METHOD FOR RETAINING BACTERIAL CELLS IN PLACE FOR STAINING AND CYTOCHEMICAL TESTS FOR LIGHT OR ELECTRON MICROSCOPY
1 Cornell University, Laboratory of Bacteriology, Ithaca, New York
A method of retaining bacterial cells in place on glass cover slips or on electron microscope films for cytochemical tests was described. The method consisted basically of applying a film of "formvar" over the cells on cover slips or on electron microscope object-supporting screens. The "formvar" film did not interfere with many stains and cytochemical tests, nor with the use of enzymes. Submitted on June 18, 1953
