In order to obtain specific and optimal ultrastructural localization of vasopressin and oxytocin in the hypothalamo-neurohypophyseal system of the rat, 2 staining procedures and several tissue treatments were evaluated using neurohypophyseal tissue. It appeared from these studies that post-embedding staining with the unlabeled antibody enzyme method developed by Sternberger allows greater dilution of the first antibody (anti-vasopressin, 1:4800) than the indirect procedure (1:320) using a peroxidase conjugate as second antibody. Immersion fixation with 4% formalin during 24 hours gave better results (general ultrastructure, immunoreactivity) than those obtained by perfusion fixation with 2.5% glutaraldehyde-1% paraformaldehyde or freeze substitution.Since no reliable specificity tests were performed at the electron microscopical level, tests were developed for antibodies against both vasopressin and oxytocin. For anti-vasopressin plasma neural lobes of homozygous Brattleboro rats, that are lacking vasopressin by a genet- ical defect, were used. For antibodies against both hormones serial sections were used that were alternately incubated with the antibodies.

Human liver guanase was purified and a specific antibody against it was raised in rabbits. The antiserum formed a single precipitin line with human liver extract, and also completely inhibited the activity of the liver enzyme. An immunoblotting study showed that the antibody bound specifically to one band of protein with guanase activity and not to other proteins. Therefore, we concluded that this antiserum against the liver enzyme was suitable for use in immunohistochemical demonstration of guanase. In tissue sections, the immunohistochemical reaction with this antibody was positive in the same locations as the histochemical guanase reaction with DAB (3,3'-diaminobenzidine tetrahydrochloride).

Metal ions in high concentrations can pollute the marine environment. Human activities and industrial pollution are the causes of Cu2+ contamination. Here, we report our discovery of an enzyme method-based microfluidic that can be used to rapidly detect Cu2+ in seawater. In this method, Cu2+ is reduced to Cu+ to inhibit horseradish peroxidase (HRP) activity, which then results in the color distortion of the reaction solution. The chip provides both naked eye and spectrophotometer modalities. Cu2+ concentrations have an ideal linear relationship, with absorbance values ranging from 3.91 nM to 256 μM. The proposed enzyme method-based microfluidic chip detects Cu2+ with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.87 nM. Other common metal ions do not affect the operation of the chip. The successful detection of Cu2+ was achieved using three real seawater samples, verifying the ability of the chip in practical applications. Furthermore, the chip realizes the functions of two AND gates in series and has potential practical implementations in biochemical detection and biological computing.
