Instructions / Protocol / Recommendations
Verwendung:
Silver nitrate solutions stain by impregnation and are suitable for the detection of lattice fibres, very fine connective tissue and neurofibrils. The impregnated tissues show a deep black or dark brown colour.
Prinzip:
Silver nitrate is a salt of nitric acid. The use of silver nitrate to produce lattice fibres has been known since 1904 and has developed into the most important method for the production of argyrophilic fibres. Impregnation is based on the reduction of silver nitrate to pure silver, which precipitates on the fibre. Many methods involve toning with gold chloride (art. no.: 11134). In this process, metallic silver is converted into silver chloride and pure gold is precipitated.
