Comparison of histomorphology and DNA preservation produced by fixatives in the veterinary diagnostic laboratory setting

2014-03-19

Abstract excerpt

Histopathology is the most useful tool for diagnosis of a number of diseases, especially cancer. To be effective, histopathology requires that tissues be fixed prior to processing. Formalin is currently the most common histologic fixative, offering many advantages: it is cheap, readily available, and pathologists are routinely trained to examine tissues fixed in formalin. However, formalin fixation substantially d...
