Microwave
-
Heat
-
Ultrasound
-
Freeze
Frage 7
Frage
True or false: autolysis represents the changes to tissue that occur before fixation due to bacterial contamination.
Antworten
- True
- False
Frage 8
Frage
What type of fixative is Neutral Buffered Formalin classed as?
Antworten
-
Universal fixative
-
Fixative used for specific purposes
Frage 9
Frage
Why is Formalin Buffered to a neutral pH?
Antworten
-
because the further a fixative is from the pH of body tissues the more distortion you can get in the tissue at the cellular level.
-
because the further a fixative is from the pH of body tissues the less distortion you can get in the tissue at the cellular level.
Frage 10
Frage
What is the function of xylene in tissue processing?
Antworten
-
To cut sections, the tissue has to be embedded in paraffin wax, but wax is not soluble in water or alcohol. However, it is soluble in a paraffin solvent called 'xylene'.
-
Cleaning up the lab station to prevent contamination of other specimens and users of the facilities
Frage 11
Frage
Why is the histological section cut to approximately 5µm thick?
Antworten
-
- Sample needs to be thin enough for light microscopy (about 1 cell layer thick) - makes it easier to evaluate tissue and look at its morphology
-
- Provides enough thickness to account for cell to cell ratio
