Abstract
Dried herbarium specimens of Macrocystis pyrifera were rehydrated, cleared by removing chlorophyll and other pigments with hot ethanol or acetone and then treating with hot alkali, and stained by a number of techniques. The distribution and structure of mucilage canals and associated glands were studied in material stained by safranin, basic fuchsin, or alcian blue. Sieve tubes were stained with aniline blue and the fluorescence induced by either ultraviolet or blue light was examined.
