I wish to screen bacterial colonies on a petri plate for glycogen
synthesis. I have a refernece that used a "iodine vapor" method. The
method is referenced. However, the referenced article does not have the
method, but does reference another article. I am now three levels deep
in recursion and our library here above the artic circle does not have
the nexted referenced article. If anyone has a method for using iodine
vapor for staining glycogen I would appreciate hearing from you. Also
if anyone would be so kind as to see if J. Bacteriol. 97:970-972
actually has the method described I would appreciate knowing before I
have our library request the article.
