To date, examining patient tissue samples has meant cutting them into thin slices for histological analysis. This could change, thanks to a new staining method devised by an interdisciplinary team ...

Pathologists observe tissue samples by staining them first. However, the standard procedures for staining tissue samples in histopathology are time-consuming and require specialized laboratory ...

A review of TUNEL staining kits and an overview of the processes involved in TUNEL staining. ‘TUNEL’ stands for Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling. Otherwise known as the ...

Label-free autofluorescence lifetime is a unique feature of the inherent fluorescence signals emitted by natural fluorophores in biological samples. Fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) can ...

Ciliates, a group of single-celled ciliated eukaryotes, have been studied since the dawn of light microscopy, with over 10,000 species described. Cilia are the key feature of ciliates and contribute ...

A research team has established an optimized three-dimensional (3D) tissue-staining and observation technique based on existing tissue clearing technology. The study details how the new technique can ...

Universal screening for Lynch syndrome in colorectal cancer is recommended, and immunohistochemistry for the mismatch repair proteins is commonly used. To reduce cost, some screen using only MSH6 and ...

To date, examining patient tissue samples has meant cutting them into thin slices for histological analysis. This might now be set to change, thanks to a new staining method. This allows specialists ...
