Teasing is the process wherein selected specimen is immersed in a watch glass containing _______________________, carefully dissected and examined under a microscope, either unstained by Phase contrast microscope or satined by bright field microscope.
ISOTONIC SALT SOLUTION
NSS
RINGER’S LACTATE SOLUTION
Other term for teasing
dissociation
Tissue exam normally utilized when a RAPID DIAGNOSIS of the tissue in question is required
Frozen section
Frozen section is recommended for ________ and _______ tissue demonstration
LIPIDS, NERVOUS
Other term for squash preparation
CRUSHING
chicken fatformation and Currant jelly fat like formation
Postmortem clotting
Primary goal of Fixation
To PRESERVE the morphologic and chemical integrity of the cell
Secondary purpose of Fixation
To Harden and Protect tissue
Most important reaction in fixation
Protein stabilization
This causes cell to swell
Tissue in water hypotonic solution
This causes cell to shrink
Tissue in strong salt (hypertonic solution
Formalin penetrates tissue at a rate of
1mm/hr
