Problems solved by technology

[0002] Collagen fibers are widely distributed in various organs and are the most abundant fibers. There are four types of collagen fibers (I, II, III, and IV) known in the prior art. These four types of collagen fibers are important for research The pathogenesis and evolution of lesions have certain significance. Although immunohistochemical staining and molecular pathology techniques have developed rapidly, the application of special staining methods in pathological diagnosis is still irreplaceable; currently commonly used special staining methods for collagen fibers include Masson staining , VanGieson staining, HE staining, picric acid-Sirius red staining methods, etc. Under the light microscope, Masson staining and Van Gieson staining cannot distinguish different types of collagen fibers, and it is difficult to complete the distribution of various types of collagen fibers on tissue sections. Observation and detection of structure and content; and this kind of staining steps are cumbersome and difficult to operate; application of picric acid-Sirius red staining method combined with polarizing microscope observation of collagen fibers can improve resolution; combined with image analysis technology, different types of The type, distribution, arrangement and content of collagen fibers can be analyzed by positioning and quantitative analysis of collagen fibers, which is convenient for judging the degree of tissue fibrosis. This method has incomparable advantages over ordinary light microscope observation
[0003] In the prior art, conventional picric acid-Sirius red staining is used. Under the polarizing microscope, the collagen fibers are weakly stained and the effect is not good. Moreover, ethanol dehydration is often used after the sections are stained, which easily weakens the background of the yellow staining, resulting in collagen fiber structure. Not clear, affecting the correct observation of the tissue and lesion analysis

Abstract

The invention provides a dyeing method for observing collagenous fibers by adopting a polarization microscope. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, using saturated picric acid-sirius red dye liquor for dyeing, then using a weak acid solution in concentration of 1-10%w / v for immersing tissue slices, and finally conventionally leaching, drying and fixing the tissue slices. The permeation of the tissue is enhanced by the heated picric acid, so that the lining dyeing background is brighter; the heated sirius red dye liquor has firmer adsorption for the collagenous fibers and the coloring is clear; the weak acid solution can wash off the picric acid crystal separated out of the tissue slices and is difficult to wash off the yellow lining dyeing background, so that the excellent coloring of the collagenous fibers can be guaranteed, the yellow lining dyeing background is obvious, and the collagenous fibers are clear; the dyeing method provided by the invention has high repeatability, the collagenous fibers are obviously colored, and the fiber structure is clear; and the method is beneficial to the positioning and quantitative analysis for different collagenous fibers and is convenient for the judgment for the degree of tissue fibrosis.
