Popis: | A variety of histochemical fixatives were used to compare the fixation of bacterial films produced by a standard slime-producing strain of Staphylococcus epidermidis on plastic tissue culture plates. Some reagents were completely ineffective in fixing the slime layer, whereas others gave variable results. The best alternative to the fixative of the reference method, the potentially explosive Bouin's reagent, was air drying. |
