A new fixed cryosection technique for the simultaneous immunocytochemical demonstration of T6 and S100 antigens.

A formalin-calcium fixation method of preparing cryosections is described, which allows demonstration of Langerhans' cells by S100 antigen staining on frozen sections. The number of Langerhans' cells given by T6 antigen staining is also higher in formalin-calcium fixed frozen sections than acetone fixed frozen sections. The preparation is suitable for dual demonstration of the two antigens on the same section enabling a more accurate numerical evaluation of Langerhans' cell populations in the normal cervical epithelium.

Matrix vesicles in newly synthesizing bone observed after ultracryotomy and ultramicroincineration.

Matrix vesicles were observed in femurs of 8-day-old chick embryos prepared by ultracryotomy. Some of the sections were subjected to ultramicroincineration. The unfixed tissues never came into contact with solutions, and thereby artifacts due to dissolution, redistribution, or rearrangement of the mineral constituents were avoided. In the osteoid, electron dense objects with the size and appearance of matrix vesicles were seen, although limiting membranes were not visible. After ultramicroincineration the vesicles were observed to contain small crystals and a less dense amorphous mineral material which may te the precursor of bone mineral. In addition, a ring of ash enclosed the crystalline and amorphous mineral and appeared to occupy the position of the vesicle membrane as seen in conventionally prepared material.
