Applying fixatives

There are several ways to apply a fixative solution. The big issue with application of the fixative is the speed once the blood supply to tissue or the culture medium of cells is removed. Cells without oxygen supply quickly begin necrotic cell death or necrosis. Once necrosis is initiated, it will spread, as lytic enzymes from membrane-bound lysosomes are released into the space around cells and begin to attack other cells. There are several methods for applying fixative depending on the sample to be fixed. 

The best way to apply the fixative solution to tissue is vascular perfusion, where the blood vessels carry the fixative to the cells in the animal. The animal s vascular system brings the fixative solution to the cells before they have a chance to undergo necrotic cell death from lack of nutrients or oxygen. Capillaries are within microns of all the cells in the animal, so the delivery of the fixative is very rapid. This is sometimes called transcardiac perfusion and it requires equipment and preparation. This method requires some surgery skills, some specialized equipment, and must be done in a hood. Vascular perfusion is highly recommended to give the best results with animal tissue. 

Fixating cultures of attached cells seems easy, but in reality it is difficult. The problem is that cells can float off the substrate for two reasons (1) shooting

In conclusion, the maximum adsorption capacity should be measured in fixed-bed experiments under dynamic conditions, and if models are applicable, diffusion coefficients should be also determined in fixed-bed apparatus. Due to the fact that the equilibrium isotherms require extended data series and thus are time-consuming experiments, the latter are quite difficult to be conducted in fixed-bed reactors and from this point of view, it is more practical to evaluated equilibrium isotherms in batch reactor systems. Then, it is known that when applying fixed-bed models using an equilibrium isotherm obtained in batch-type experiments, the equilibrium discrepancy (if it exists) can be compensated by a different estimate for the solid diffusion coefficient (Inglezakis and Grigoropoulu, 2003 Weber and Wang, 1987).

Apply fixative (syntan or chrome for certain wool shades). 

In one commercial device a guard ring system has been developed to confine the area of the impressed current and thus define the parameter A in equation 4.3 which allows us to calculate the metal loss. This is illustrated schematically in Figure 4.14 the equipment is shown in Figure 4.1h Less accurate devices use a large electrode and assume that area of measurement is directly below the electrode. Some devices have guard rings that apply fixed levels of current which do not always confine the current correctly. These approaches are reasonably accurate...
