Popis: Procedures for fixing tissues, which are of great importance in the histochemical study of lipid metabolism, have been investigated.1) Phospholipids can be well preserved in tissues by adding only a small quantity of CaCl2 to 10% formalin.2) By immersing tissue blocks in 10% ethyl alcohol, lipoproteins are specifically removed from tissues.3) Plasmalogen in tissues is not solube in acetone but soluble in methyl alcohol, and it is localized exclusively in the zona glomerulosa and the outer portion of the zona fasciculata.
