ECM collagen fibers were red-stained by Sirius red/fast green staining and blue-stained by Masson’s trichrome. The percentage of collagen area was estimated by ImageJ, and the organization of the ...

Five micrometers paraffin sections were stained using Alexa Fluor 488 conjugated wheat germ agglutinin (WGA; Invitrogen) to identify myocyte cell borders or Picro Sirius Red Stain Kit (Polysciences) ...

To measure collagen abundance, extracted ECM was stained with the Picro Sirius Red Stain Kit (Abcam) according to the manufacturer's instructions. The stain was extracted with 0.1 M NaOH, and optical ...

Sirius red stain confirmed a significant (p<; 0.1, Wilcox Ranksum) increase in collagen content in the fibrotic medulla and cortex relative to control. These results suggest that VisR noninvasively ...

If none, clean away. Our videos (above and below) show you how to remove tough mustard, red wine, chewing gum, and ink stains. Some of our advice involves weird but solid science.

Collagen was typed and quantified using the picrosirius red histochemical technique, and steroid receptors were identified by immunohistochemistry. The results showed a predominance of collagen type ...
