Abstract
The following portion of this book represents a coherent system of quantitative analysis for histochemical purposes. It derives from the original system of Linderstrom-Lang and Holter (1), but differs in several significant details. In the original methodology of the Carlsberg Laboratory, serial frozen sections were cut from a uniform tissue block. Alternate sections were either analyzed, or fixed and stained for histological control. This procedure has been further developed and exploited with great success by David Glick, and is fully described in book form (2).
