Optimal conditions for visualizing water-conducting pathways in a living tree by the dye injection method.

Toshihiro Umebayashi et al.

Tree physiology, 27(7), 993-999 (2007-04-04)

To elucidate the water-conducting pathways in living trees by the dye injection method, suitable sample preparation procedures are needed. We evaluated quantitatively the properties and concentrations of three dyes (acid fuchsin, basic fuchsin and safranin) widely used for this purpose

Basophilia, acidophilia and argyrophilia of "dark" (compacted) neurons during their formation, recovery or death in an otherwise undamaged environment.

Andrea Zsombok et al.

Journal of neuroscience methods, 142(1), 145-152 (2005-01-18)

By means of a condenser discharge electric shock paradigm, "dark" (compacted) granule neurons were momentarily produced in the hippocampal dentate gyri of rats, which were sacrificed either immediately or following survival periods ranging from 1h to 30 days. Except for

Nonlinear studies of acid fuchsin dye in liquid and solid media.

G Vinitha et al.

Spectrochimica acta. Part A, Molecular and biomolecular spectroscopy, 69(4), 1160-1164 (2007-08-08)

Solid-state dye-doped polymers are attractive alternative to the conventional liquid dye solutions. In this paper, nonlinear properties of the dye Acid Fuchsin has been studied. The third-order nonlinear optical properties of Acid Fuchsin dye in 1-butanol and dye-doped polymer film
