For the detection of starch in paraffin sections of FAA fixed root tipa of pea and maize the Lugol's solution of suitable constitution and proper dilution was tried. JJK containing solution of arabic gum was proved as a mounting medium preserving the resulting colour. A procedure is given combining the application of JJK with alcian blue staining.
