Strong autofluorescence was observed in primary myelofibrosis and acute leukemia with reticulin myelofibrosis in 488-nm and 561-nm channels. To eliminate autofluorescence, AutoFluo Quencher was used on bone marrow sections with different incubation times. The effects of AutoFluo Quencher on immunofluorescence analysis of bone marrow biopsies was tested using antibodies tagged with different fluorophores.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n
