Osmium tetroxide as a probe of RNA structure. [PDF]
RNA, 2017 Structured RNAs have a central role in cellular function. The capability of structured RNAs to adopt fixed architectural structures or undergo dynamic conformational changes contributes to their diverse role in the regulation of gene expression. Although numerous biophysical and biochemical tools have been developed to study structured RNAs, there is a

Recycling Osmium Tetroxide [PDF]
Microscopy Today, 2001 Abstract Osmium tetroxide is indeed wonderful stuff. Osmium is a rare element, so disposal of used solutions should consist of recycling, not dumping, even though osmium compounds are not considered environmentally hazardous (Smith et al., 1978 Trace Metal in the Environment, vol 4. Ann Arbor Science Publishers).

THE FINE STRUCTURE OF CHLOROPLAST STROMA FOLLOWING ALDEHYDE OSMIUM-TETROXIDE FIXATION [PDF]
Journal of Cell Biology, 1965 Markedly improved fixation of leaf tissues is obtained by means of a glutaraldehyde (or acrolein)-osmium tetroxide procedure, as compared with the results of potassium permanganate or osmium tetroxide fixation methods.

A STUDY OF OSMIUM TETROXIDE FIXATION [PDF]
Journal of Histochemistry & Cytochemistry, 1968 The specific conditions of osmium fixation have been studied on gelatin gels and bovine pancreas. Protein (gelatin)-bound osmium can be quantitated by a modification of the Majumdar and Sen Gupta test, free and tissue (pancreas)-bound osmium by a modified Bahr test.

Isolation of disaturated phosphatidylcholine with osmium tetroxide
Journal of Lipid Research, 1976 A simple, rapid, inexpensive method for isolating disaturated phosphatidylcholine from adult rat lung has been devised. Total lipids are reacted with osmium tetroxide dissolved in carbon tetrachloride, and the disaturated phosphatidylcholine is isolated ...

Actin filament destruction by osmium tetroxide [PDF]
The Journal of cell biology, 1978 We have studied the destruction of purified muscle actin filaments by osmium tetroxide (OsO4) to develop methods to preserve actin filaments during preparation for electron microscopy. Actin filaments are fragmented during exposure to OsO4. This causes the viscosity of solutions of actin filaments to decrease, ultimately to zero, and provides a ...

Aspects of turnover and biogenesis of synaptic vesicles at locust neuromuscular junctions as revealed by zinc iodide-osmium tetroxide (ZIO) reacting with intravesicular SH-groups. [PDF]
Journal of Cell Biology, 1978 Retractor unguis nerve muscle preparations from the locust were subjected to the zinc iodide-osmium tetroxide reaction (ZIO) after pre- fixation in glutaraldehyde.
