A cytochemical method of chromatin study by means of nuclear staining with ethidium (bromide) is described. Dependence of stain binding by chromatin on ethidium concentration, ionic composition and buffer pH value has been analyzed. It is suggested that cells be stained in 2.10(-5) M solution of ethidium in 0.1 M tris-HCl buffer at pH 8.0 during 30 min. The fluorescence of nuclei stained with ethidium under conditions described is shown to reflect changes in physico-chemical properties of chromatin taking place in the course of its chemical modification and physiological activation in regenerating liver. The use of ethidium for chromatin cytochemistry allows to study chromatin properties in wide ranges of pH. Some other advantages of the method suggested over the commonly used method of acridine orange staining are discussed.
