METHOD FOR RENDERING TISSUE TRANSPARENT, REAGENT FOR RENDERING TISSUE TRANSPARENT, AND TISSUE OBSERVATION METHOD

摘要

A method for rendering tissue transparent, comprising a procedure of immersing the tissue in a water-soluble solvent comprising 2,2′-thiodiethanol and at least one of glycerol and a nonionic organoiodine compound is provided as a technique capable of sufficiently rendering various organs transparent without causing their changes by a simple operation without using any poisonous or dangerous organic solvent. In the method for rendering tissue transparent, a mixed solvent of 2,2′-thiodiethanol, glycerol, and a nonionic organoiodine compound aqueous solution is preferably used as the water-soluble solvent.
