Abstract
IT has been possible to obtain cleavage of the 1,2 glyool linkage in tissue sections with a solution of phenyl iodosoacetate in glacial acetic acid1, thus duplicating histochemically the chemical studies of Criegee and Beucker2. However, to establish definitely the reliability of aryl iodosoacetates as histochemical reagents, it was felt that several other compounds of this type should be examined in a similar manner.
