[Electron Microscopy of Cotton. Preparation of Ultrathin Sections.... ] Expansion Technique.... ion Etching(Spit).... Preparation of Fibers.... Auxiliary Techniques. Dispersion Staining. Cotton fibers are embedded in a cargille medium, the refractive index of which is chosen such that its wavelength dispersion curve and that of the object intersect at...=580 nm. When viewed with a central stop in the microscope objective lens, the fiber then has a magenta color. For untreated cotton the refractive index of the medium has to be nD=1. 59, and for mercerized cotton 1. 54. 2, record 2, English, - dispersion%20staining%20optical%20microscopy
