Xylene-free paraffin embedding dehydration transparent agent
Technical Field
The invention relates to a xylene-free paraffin embedding dehydration clearing agent.
Background
The quality of tissue embedding is the cornerstone of medical scientific research work, and the conventional embedding process comprises gradient ethanol dehydration, xylene transparence, wax immersion and the like. Wherein, the tissue dehydration process is a key link influencing the embedding quality.
The proper dehydration clearing agent can increase the rapidness of paraffin section preparation and ensure the quality of the section, which is of great importance for subsequent experiments such as tissue staining, immunohistochemistry and the like. However, the existing conventional dehydrating and clearing agent xylene has the defects of increasing the brittleness and hardening the texture of tissues, and the xylene volatilizes and can cause the toxic reaction of human bodies after being absorbed by the human bodies, so that a novel dehydrating and clearing agent with lower harm to the human bodies and better dehydrating and clearing degrees is urgently needed to be searched.
Disclosure of Invention
In view of the above, the invention provides a xylene-free paraffin embedding dehydration clearing agent, which can replace dehydration of absolute ethyl alcohol and clearing effect of xylene in a conventional paraffin embedding procedure. Tissue slices treated by the dehydrating and transparentizing agent are smooth, and tissues are not embrittled or hardened.
The invention provides a xylene-free paraffin embedded dehydrating transparentizing agent, which is prepared by mixing n-butyl alcohol and turpentine.
Preferably, the volume ratio of the n-butyl alcohol to the turpentine oil in the dehydrating and transparentizing agent is 1-7: 1-3, and more preferably, the volume ratio of the n-butyl alcohol to the turpentine oil in the dehydrating and transparentizing agent is 1: 1.
The dehydration clearing agent is used for dehydration in the process of paraffin embedding of isolated tissues.
In some embodiments, the ex vivo tissue employed in the present invention is brain, kidney, stomach, liver, duodenal tissue.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following beneficial effects:
the invention adopts the mixture of normal butanol and turpentine as a dehydrating clearing agent in the paraffin embedding procedure to replace absolute ethyl alcohol and xylene, so that the processed tissue slices are smooth, and the tissues are not brittle and hard; after HE dyeing, the nucleus and cytoplasm of the tissue treated by the novel dehydration clearing agent are clear, and the staining degree, color and transparency of the tissue are no different from those of the tissue treated by the conventional dehydration procedure; the invention adopts n-butyl alcohol and turpentine oil to dehydrate tissues, which can not only avoid the toxic effect of dimethylbenzene to human, but also reduce the damage of anhydrous alcohol over dehydration to tissues.

The invention provides a xylene-free paraffin-embedded dehydrating transparentizing agent, which is prepared by mixing n-butyl alcohol and turpentine, wherein the volume ratio of the n-butyl alcohol to the turpentine in the dehydrating transparentizing agent is 1: 1. When the volume ratio of the n-butyl alcohol to the turpentine oil in the dehydrating and clearing agent is 1-7: 1-3, the dehydrating effect is close to the following experimental result.
The dehydration clearing agent is used for carrying out a tissue paraffin embedding test, and the specific test process is as follows:

2. Results
2.1HE staining results
Comparing fig. 1 and fig. 2 (in the figures, serial numbers 1-6 are liver isolated tissue, hippocampal isolated tissue, cerebral cortex isolated tissue, kidney isolated tissue, stomach isolated tissue, and duodenum isolated tissue in sequence), it can be found that the paraffin section of the isolated tissue obtained by dehydrating and embedding the isolated tissue by using the dehydrating and clearing agent of the present invention is smooth, a complete wax band can be formed, and the cut wax sheet is very flat and has no phenomena of brittle tissue and hard texture.
After the in vitro tissue subjected to dehydration embedding treatment is subjected to HE dyeing, the cell nucleus is purple blue, the cytoplasm is red, the cell nucleus and the cytoplasm are clear, and the color, the coloring degree and the transparency of a tissue section are not obviously different from those of the tissue section subjected to conventional dehydration treatment. In HE staining, we observed that brain tissue cells have the appearance of nuclear pyknosis, neuron loss, slight liver steatosis and no obvious pathological changes of kidney, stomach and duodenum. When the tissue is subjected to He staining by conventional dehydration embedding treatment, the tissue patch is not tightly folded and curled, and part of the tissue is fractured and has incomplete structure such as intestinal tissue.
2.2 immunohistochemical results
The invention detects the expression of the apoptosis-promoting factor BAX in the brain, the kidney, the stomach, the liver and the duodenum of a multiple cerebral infarction model rat treated by polygonum convolvulus through immunohistochemical staining, and the result shows that the positive expression of brown yellow particles can be seen in each isolated tissue after dehydration embedding treatment by using the method, and the result is not different from the conventional dehydration procedure, as shown in figures 3-4 (in the figures, the serial numbers 1-6 are sequentially liver isolated tissue, hippocampal isolated tissue, brain cortex isolated tissue, kidney isolated tissue, stomach isolated tissue and duodenum isolated tissue).
The foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, various modifications and decorations can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these modifications and decorations should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
