Abstract:
Two decolorizing agents for formalin-fixed skin have been studied, of which one is a mixture of Ac_2O, H_2O_2, KOAc, and EDTA, and the other, a mixture of H_2O_2, KOAc, and EDTA. These decolorizing agents possess stronger decolorizing ability and are less damageable to skin than commonly used aqueous H_2O_2, solution. The reactions between the decolorizing agents and keratin in epidermis have been revealed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy to be mainly oxidation of the disulfide linkage of cystine to sulfonate group.
