    Expression of the terminal transferase (TdT) antigen, as revealed by indirect immunofluorescence, was retained in samples of human acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) cells, of various phenotypes, during storage at 4 degrees C for almost six months. Similar specimens of ALL cells, of common phenotype, were transported successfully by air without notable loss of TdT. The unsatisfactory outcome of earlier studies may be explained on the basis of methodologic differences alone.

    Immunofluorescence Microscopy

    A fluorescence microscope uses fluorescent chromophores called fluorochromes, which can absorb energy from a light source and then emit this energy as visible light. Fluorochromes include naturally fluorescent substances (such as chlorophylls) and fluorescent stains that are added to the specimen to create contrast. Dyes such as Texas red and FITC are examples of fluorochromes. Other examples include the nucleic acid dyes 4’,6’-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI), and acridine orange.
