 Protein Disulfide Bonds and Fixation of Tissues in Histology? Hiya dudes, a weird question for all those histologists.... during fixation of tissues and cells what exactly happens to intracellular cysteine disulfide bonds with formaldehydes and paraformaldehydes? Isnt it known that PFAs cross-link proteins? What about formaldehyde? Do these fixatives stabilize bonds? thanks   |
