Abstract

Supplement of guanidine hydrochloride to the original tannic acid solution of MURAKAMI (1973) eliminated, without debilitating the conductivity effect, the vexatious treatment with different amino-acids and sucrose in the previous method (MURAKAMI, 1974). The procedures and advantages of this simplified modification are described using human spleen samples; attempt was made to elucidate the structure of arterial terminals by dissecting the specimens under the scanning electron microscope.
