Abstract
THE liquid-emulsion, stripping-film, and wet-mounting autoradiographic techniques developed by Bélanger and Leblond1, Pelc2, and Evans3, respectively, are not directly applicable to tissue which contains water-soluble radioactive material. Variations to the last two of these techniques have been described in subsequent papers. Canny4, Eisen5, and Winteringham6 described variations for mounting the stripping film without water coming into contact with the tissue, and Gallimore7, Harris8, and Kaminski9 suggested different techniques for flattening and mounting paraffin sections directly on autoradiographic plates.
