✦ Synopsis


The polarization optical analysis of human blood platelets was carried out by means of topo-optical staining reactions. Similar studies have not been performed so far. With this approach we were able to demonstrate the spatially oriented nature of glycoprotein components in the platelet membrane. Using a sialic acid specific topo-optical reaction the sialic acid component of human platelet membrane was selectively demonstrated and the even distribution of sialic acid residues on the membrane surface was also suggested. Polarization optical analysis has shown a membrane-parallel orientation of oligosaccharide chains carrying sialic acids.

Phases I and II (early and advanced) of platelet aggregation could readily be followed and studied by various topo-optical reactions. Our studies indicate that in the early stage (monitored by an aggregometer) aggregates show no alteration in membrane structure of platelet. In the advanced stage (p

The latent birefringence of lymphocyte membranes of various species may readily be studied and analysed by various topo-optical reactions. The membranes of glutaraldehyde-fixed and PBS-washed lymphocytes show continuous birefringence with thiazine- and quinoline dyes. According to polarization optic
