Abstract
Summary Cis-dichloro-diammine platinum (II) provides a strong contrast to electron microscopic preparations by reacting with nucleic acids and proteins. This staining technique is easy and applicable to ultrathin sections embedded in Epon; various staining conditions have been tested.Keywords
