Title: Fixing Attached Cells in Paraformaldehyde Protocol - http://www.cshprotocols.org/cgi/content/extract/2006/21/pdb.prot4294
Description:Treating cells with paraformaldehyde leads to the establishment of chemical cross-links between free amino groups. When the cross-links join different molecules, a latticework of interactions occurs that holds the overall architecture of the cell together. Commercial formaldehyde solutions are not recommended, because they lack the advantages of using a variable-length polymer, and the cells will simultaneously be fixed with the alcohol (usually methanol).
