Expected aim Product for the preparation of cyto-histological samples for optical microscopy.
Application Reagent used as oxidant in the PAS method.
Principle
In the PAS method, to show the neutral mucins, the periodic acid oxidizes selectively groups: 1.2 - Glycolic; primary aminic (or 1-hydroxy-2-aminic); secondary aminic (or 1-hydroxy-2-alkylaminic) and 1-hydroxy-2-ketonic. During oxidating process the links between carbon atoms in 1,2 position break and consequently aldehydic groups are formed. In the following reaction, sulphurous fuchsin in Schiff reagent changes these 2 contiguous aldehydic groups into a insoluble stained compound.
