| MapAnalyzer |
Bringing new techniques to your research. | |
|  |
| In addition to conventionalobservation and photomicrographic techniques, the quantitative andqualitative analysis of specimen through microphotometry is moreａnd more in demand. In the medical and biological fields,microphotometry is established technique for quantitative analysisof various intercellular substances. MapAnalyzer was developed for quantitative microanalysis ofdistribution of various substances, such as neurotransmitters andneuromodulators, in the large tissue slice. With Yamato ScientificCo.fs MapAnalyzer, the possibilities of your research will beextended. | |
| - Application - |
| (1) | Quantitative analysis of immunohistochemical fluorescence Distribution of substances in animal and human slicesDetection of abnormal changes of substances in diseased tissuesDetection of effect of drugs on the central nervous system and others in the animal experimentsElimination of non-specific autofluorescenceComparison analysis among various substances in the same slice |
| (2) | Quantitative analysis of enzyme-labelled immunohistochemistryａnd various histochemistry |
| (3) | Measurement of fluorescence chelating agent or fluorescenceligand |
| (4) | Quantitative analysis of DNA or RNA |
| (5) | Quantitative analysis of autoradiographs or X-ray film |
| (6) | Cytotoxicity testing |
| Quantitative immunohistochemicaldistribution of calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II in the coronal slice of a rat brain. |  |
 | An image of the quantitativedistribution of a substance can be obtained as follows: (1) thetarget substance labeled by immunofluorescent staining in amicroarea of a slice is illuminated by a fine excitation beam (theminimum diameter on a slice is 5 µm) which is narrowed by a fielddiaphragm and aperture diaphragm; (2) the fluorescence in this areais collected into the photometer by the objective lens through aphotometry diaphragm, and its intensity is measured; (3) the sliceis moved by a two-dimensional scanning stage (the maximum stagemotion is 140 mm x 140 mm), and the fluorescence intensity in thenext microarea is measured; (4) the measured fluorescence intensityin each microarea is collected in a host computer, where it isanalyzed for reconstruction of an image of the entire scanned area;ａnd (5) the image can be viewed as a close-up, in full or at anangle, and displayed quantitatively as a colored or monochromaticimage. The actual intensity in a specific region is displayed whenthat region is selected by a cursor on the image on a TV monitor. | |

| Quantitativeimmunohistochemical Distribution of tyrosine hydroxylase in the coronal slice of a rat brain. |  |
| The quantitative linearity, sensitivity and resolution ofMapAnalyzer surpass those of image analyzers used with TV cameras,ａnd the sensitivity, reproducibility and facility of this methodare greater than those of the HPLC method. Also, the measuring areaof this analyzer is far larger than that of laser confocalmicroscopes. (See, J. Neurosci. Methods 85: 161-173, 1998) |

| Quantitative immunohistochemicaldistribution of tyrosine hydroxylase in the coronal slice of a ratbrain. The stained slice was measured at 20-µm intervals, and thedistribution of the intensity obtained from approximately 250,000microareas is displayed. Markedly intense tyrosine hydroxylase-likeimmunoreactivity was distributed in the dorsolateral area of theneostriatum, nucleus accumbens, olfactory tubercle and motorcortex. | |
 | Quantitative immunohistochemical distributions of glutamatedecarboxylase (left side) and substance P (right side) in the sameslices of a rat brain. Anterior (upper) and posterior (bottom)regions of the brain were analyzed. Double-stained slice wasmeasured at 20-µm intervals. Markedly intense glutamatedecarboxylase-like and substance P-like immunoreactivities weredistributed in the ventral pallidum and substantianigra. |

| Pure immunohistochemical fluorescence intensities can beobtained automatically from human brains containing variousautofluorescences using MapAnalyzer. Measuring points: approximately six millions at 50-µmintervals. (See, J. Neurosci. Methods 85: 161-173, 1998) |
 | Quantitative immunohistochemical distribution ofsubstance P in a brain slice of an ***** normal human (male, age50). Data were obtained from approximately six million regions inthe brain at 50-µm intervals. Conspicuously intense substanceP-like immunoreactivity was observed in the internal segment of theglobus pallidus. The immunoreactive intensity in the internalsegment of the globus pallidus was approximately twice as high asthat in the external segment of the globus pallidus. (See, Neurosci. Res. 35: 339-346,1999) |
 | Quantitative distribution of Nissl bodies in ahuman brain slice. The slice was stained with cresyl violet, andthe distribution in the globus pallidus and putamen area wasanalyzed through measurement of the transmission densities. GPe,external segment of globus pallidus; GPi, internal segment ofglobus pallidus; Pt, putamen. (See, Neurosci. Res. 35: 339-346, 1999) |
 | Quantitative distribution of bone calcification ofspontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and normotensive Wistar Kyotorats (WKY). X-ray film was reversed and the degree of blackeningwas measured. A higher level of calcification is observed in thevarious bones of SHR compared with those of the WKY. (See, Brain Res. Bull. 30: 107-113, 1993) |
