摘要
The formazans derived from neotetrazolium chloride (NT) and 2-(2-benzothiazolyl)-3-(4-phthalhydrazidyl)-5-styryl-tetrazolium chloride (BPST) can be measured by microdensitometry of tissue sections [mouse liver] with a wide range of scanning spot sizes, without any significant effect on the recorded extinctions. The spot sizes tested ranged from 0.20-16 .mu.m. Thus when large fields have to be measured, it is possible to use low-power objectives and still obtain valid results.
