Autoradiography of diffusible substances--a practical approach.

An improved procedure for producing high quality autoradiograms has been developed. This procedure decreases the time involved in processing the tissue. Improvements in darkroom conditions, sectioning techniques, and staining procedures enable the technician to process a large volume of slides in the shortest time possible. The improved quality of the finished product makes interpretation of the results much easier. This procedure could be incorporated by any laboratory which finds autoradiography necessary to its work.
