Glutaraldehyde is a commonly used fixative in electron microscopy. It finds application in techniques like enzyme immobilisation microscopy, histochemistry and cytochemistry. In addition, paraformaldehyde (cat. no. 31628) and osmium tetroxide (cat. no. 31253) should be mentioned, or a mixture of glutaraldehyde and paraformaldehyde. Glutaraldehyde reacts with proteins and causes their cross-linking. It is often used as primary fixative because it is effective in preserving fragile structures (e.g. microtubules, rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum, mitotic spindles and platelets) better than any other fixative. Filled under argon.
