Tannic acid (medicine)


tannic acid
<chemical> Penta (m digalloyl) glucose or any soluble tannin, used in electron microscopy to enhance the contrast.

Addition of tannic acid to fixatives greatly improves, for example: the image obtained of tubulin sub units in the microtubule or the HMM decoration of microfilaments.
