Journal of lipid research, 18(4), 540-543 (1977-07-01)
A method is described for the transesterification of lipids of mammalian tissues for fatty acid analysis by gas-liquid chromatography (GLC) that eliminates the extraction step of conventional procedures. The method involves the direct reaction of anhydrous HCl-methanol with the lipids

Biotechnic & histochemistry : official publication of the Biological Stain Commission, 69(5), 289-290 (1994-09-01)
We describe chemical dehydration with 2,2-dimethoxypropane (DMP) for rapid paraffin embedding using a mixture of DMP and mineral oil followed by mineral oil as clearing intermediates. This method is useful for classical histological techniques as well as for histochemistry and
R Dierichs et al.
Histochemistry, 74(2), 263-269 (1982-01-01)
Dehydration with 2,2-dimethoxypropane acidified with 1 n HCl in an 1:100 volume ratio has been found to be unsuitable for the preservation of cell membranes in single cell preparations. Reducing the HCl concentration to 0.1 or 0.01 n results in
