[Histonet] glycogen degeneration???

[Rene J Buesa]

Air oxidation is the most likely culprit. Will specially show in sections kept at room temperature for more than 3 weeks (as for epitope signal).

Hi folks,
Has anyone experienced glycogen disappearing from previously
"excellent" control blocks of liver. A glycogen-laden liver should be
consistent throughout should it not? (ie we can't cut through it can
we??). Or is oxidation a possible culprit here (not heard of it)? Really
interested to get some feedback on this one.
Thanks so much,
Greg
