The two main fixation formats used by researchers are formalin fixation followed by paraffin embedding (FFPE) or snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen (referred to as Fresh Frozen or FF). There is less of a ...

This flexibility enables the fabrication of composite structures that best replicate the physiological conditions that surround the tissue, such as mechanical properties and topographical cues. 10 Due ...

Has your research results or laboratory processes been bogged down by poor staining quality of histology slides? We all know that proper tissue processing is a key element to downstream staining ...

In lifesaving situations, expedient and accurate diagnostic tools are critical to aid pathologists in examining biopsied tissue samples looking for signs of diseases. Engineers found a new path to ...

Breast cancer is one the leading causes of cancer death among women globally. Upon breast cancer diagnosis, the testing of HER2 – a protein that promotes cancer cell growth, is routinely carried out ...

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 ...

Moving beyond traditional methods of observing thinly sliced and stained cancer tissues, a collaborative international research team led by KAIST has successfully developed a groundbreaking technology ...

A project at New York's Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai has developed a new AI tool for cancer tissue examination. The new open-source computational analysis has been designed to "transform ...
