Description

Method for making semi-thin slice of plant tissue
Technical Field
The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a semi-thin slice of plant tissue, belonging to the technical field of biology.
Background
The resin semi-thin section is a morphology research technology with wide application, and is commonly used for positioning ultrathin section tissues in the preparation of transmission electron microscope samples. Compared with paraffin sections, the manufacturing procedure and steps of the resin semi-thin sections are simplified, the period is short, the thickness of the sections is thinner, the general thickness is only 2-7 mu m, therefore, the definition and the resolution of the semi-thin section images are superior to those of the paraffin sections, the visual field is larger than that of the ultra-thin sections, and the high-quality optical lens images are obtained. The steps from material taking to dyeing are involved, and the sample preparation quality is affected and even the sample preparation fails due to the problems in any link. The advantages and the characteristics of the resin semi-thin section technology can be reflected more perfectly by a good dyeing method. Toluidine blue is a commonly used artificial synthetic dye, a commonly used coloring agent in the preparation process of the plant semi-thin section belongs to quinone imine dyes, cations in the dyes have a dyeing effect, and acidic substances of tissue cells are combined with the cations in the dyes, so that the dyes are single dyes, lack of gradation and have no contrast, and meanwhile, a toluidine blue coloring agent solution is easy to precipitate and denature, which can influence the quality and the image effect of the semi-thin section. Therefore, in order to overcome the defects of the prior art, such as toluidine blue staining and high price of a glass cutter, a new method for manufacturing the semi-thin slice of the plant tissue needs to be provided.

(3) rinsing: rinsing the fixed leaves with 0.1M PBS buffer solution for 3 times, each time for 20 min; rinsing with distilled water for 20min for 2 times, and washing to remove fixative;
(4) and (3) dehydrating: the ethanol is dehydrated step by 50%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95% and 100% ethanol, 50% ethanol is dehydrated for 1h, 70% ethanol is dehydrated for 1h, 80% ethanol is dehydrated for 1h, 90% ethanol is dehydrated for 1h, 95% ethanol is dehydrated for 1h, 100% ethanol is dehydrated twice, and each time for 1h, in order to prevent excessive dehydration in pure ethanol, the ethanol cannot be placed in pure ethanol for more than 2 h.
(5) Configuration of the pre-permeate and permeate: the composition of the pre-permeation solution is 1/2Technovit + 1/2100% ethanol; the penetrating fluid consists of 100mL of Technit +1g of Hardender I, and can be placed at 4 ℃ for 4 weeks after being prepared. If the sample preparation hardness is not enough, the dosage of Hardender I can be increased in the process of preparing the penetrating fluid.
(6) Pre-infiltration: the dehydrated leaves were left to stand in the pre-permeation solution at room temperature for 3 hours.
(7) And (3) infiltration: the pre-infiltrated material was transferred to the permeate and allowed to infiltrate for 24 hours.

The butyronitrile gloves are worn in the whole operation process to prevent sweat on hands from softening the embedded blocks, so that powder is easily formed in the slicing process. If curling occurs during the slicing process, the tip of the embedded block is too large, so that the smaller the tip, the better the tip.
(12) Baking slices: because the section is too thin, the section is slowly placed on a glass slide on which water drops are dropped by a toothpick, and after the tissue structure is preliminarily observed under a microscope to be complete, the section is placed on an electric hot plate at 60 ℃ for baking.
