RE: [Histonet] Plant histology
I use root tip sections fixed in CRAF and stained with Flemming's Triple
stain (Safranin O, Crystal Violet and Orange G).
Xylene, Ethanol changes to hydrate, water rinse, Safranin O 1% aqueous for
1.5 hours, 15-25 secondes with 1% Iodine and 1% KI in 80 % ethanol, 5
minutes in 1%aq crsytal violet, 30 seconds of same iodine solution, rinsed
with 100% ethanol, 0.25 % solution of clove oil for about 5 minutes (be
careful not to take out all of the crystal violet), rinse with xylene, clear
and mount.

Subject: [Histonet] Plant histology
Dose any one on the list have any knowledge or experience in plant
histology.
Specifically I am trying to demonstrate mitosis in onion roots. The slides
I have access to are faded and the details are not crisp enough for
photography. Any help on processing protocols and staining techniques would
be
appreciated.
