Ruthenium red (RR), an inorganic dye was found to be useful in electron microscopy where it can combine with osmium tetroxide (OsO4) to form a complex with attraction toward anionic substances. Although Martinez-Palomo et al. (1969) were one of the first investigators to use RR together with OsO4, our computor search has shown few applications of this combination in the intervening years. The purpose of this paper is to report the results of our investigations utilizing the RR/OsO4 combination to add electron density to various biological materials. The possible mechanisms by which this may come about has been well reviewed by previous investigators (1,3a,3b,4).
