It has been found that, besides ceroid-like pigment, the zymogen granules of the pancreatic exocrine portion, the ductules of the parotid gland, the stratum corneum of the skin, the hair cortex, and its external root sheath give a positive mercury-affinity reaction on paraffin sections. On the other hand, these tissues reveal a positive reaction when the colloidal iron method for SH radical is applied following pre-treatment with thioglycollic acid.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
