Cytochemistry Flashcards
this is used to differentiate acute
myeloid leukemia from acute
lymphoid leukemia
PEROXIDASE
STAIN
In the presence of
hydrogen peroxide, MPO in
granulocytes oxidizes benzidine
dihydrochloride from a colorless to a
reddish brown derivative at the site
of the enzyme
PEROXIDASE
STAIN
indication of positive result in peroxidase stain?
acute myeloid leukemia
indication of negative result in peroxidase stain
acute lymphoid leukemia
stains phospholipids and lipoproteins
SUDAN
BLACK B
STAIN
what cell is negative for SBB stain?
lymphocytic cell
indication of positive rx of SBB?
ACUTE MYELOID LEUKEMIA
indication of negative result of SBB?
Acute lymphoid leukemia
what color is the stain of SBB?
black or bluis black
It stains lipids, such as
sterols, neutral fats, and
phospholipids because of the
solubility of the dye in lipid particles
and appears dense black.
SUDAN
BLACK B
STAIN
differentiate granulocytic from
monocytic leukemias
STAIN FOR
ESTERASES
detects esterase
enzyme present in
primary granules of
granulocytic cells
- monocytic cells are
negative in this stain.
Naphthol AS-D
Chloroacetate Esterase
indication of positive rxn of Naphthol AS-D
Chloroacetate Esterase?
granulocytic leukemia
indication of negative rxn of Naphthol AS-D
Chloroacetate Esterase?
monocytic leukemia
gives a positive reaction to
polysaccharides,mucopolysacharid,
glycoproteins, and glycogen
