Cytochemical demonstration of extraperoxisomal catalase. I. Sheep liverF Roels
In sheep hepatocytes catalase activity was demonstrated both within peroxisomes and within the cytosol. In the cytosol the catalase reaction product is contiguous to the plasma membrane and surrounds the nuclei, rough endoplasmic reticulum, cisternae, mitochondria and Golgi apparatus. This is the first cytochemical demonstration of guine extraperoxisomal catalase. No catalase reaction product was seen in the cytosol of nonparenchymal cells. To demonstrate catalase, both glutaraldehyde and formaldehyde fixation were used, followed by a diaminobenzidine technique modified from Novikoff and Goldfischer. Control reactions were performed to distinguish catalase reaction product from adsorption of oxidized diaminobenzidine and from precipitate due to oxidase-, peroxidase- or heat-stable peroxidatic activities. The results were evaluated in the light and electron microscopes.
