- Luxol fast blue stain
Image Pons very high mag.jpg thumb right Micrograph of the pons using a H&E stain hematoxylin & eosin luxol fast blue stain. Luxol fast blue stain , abbreviated LFB stain and simply LFB , is a commonly used staining stain to observe myelin under light microscopy . It is the alcohol soluble counterpart of the water soluble alcian blue . The stain works via an acid base reaction with the base of the lipoprotein in myelin replacing the base of the dye and causing a colour change. Under the stain, myelin fibers appear blue, Neutrophil granulocyte neutrophil appears pink, and nerve cells appear purple. It is often combined with hematoxylin and eosin , which is abbreviated H E LFB , H&E LFB .

Bouin solution is a compound Fixation histology fixative used in histology . ref cite book title Histotechnology A Self Instructional Text edition 3 last1 Carson first1 Freida L. last2 Hladik first2 Christa year 2009 publisher American Society for Clinical Pathology Press location Hong Kong isbn 9780891895817 page 19 url accessdate ref It is composed of picric acid , acetic acid and formaldehyde in an aqueous solution. It is especially good for Human gastrointestinal tract gastrointestinal tract biopsies because this fixative allows crisper and better Cell nucleus nuclear staining than 10 neutral buffered formalin. It is not a good fixative when tissue ultrastructure must be preserved for Electron microscope electron microscopy . However, it is a good fixative when tissue structure with a soft and delicate texture must be preserved. Formalin fixed tissue is normally mordant ed with Bouin solution for better staining results in the trichrome stain s. The acetic acid in this fixative Lysis lyses red blood cell s and dissolves small iron and calcium deposits in tissue. A variant in which the acetic acid is replaced with formic acid can be used for both fixation of tissue and decalcification. ref cite book title Theory and Practice of Histology Techniques editor1 first John D. editor1 last Bancroft editor2 first Marilyn editor2 last Gamble edition 6 year 2008 publisher Churchill Livingstone Elsevier location China isbn 9780443102790 page 72 pages url accessdate ref The effects of the three chemicals in Bouin solution balance each other. Formalin causes cytoplasm to become basophilic but this effect is balanced by the effect of the picric acid. This results in excellent nuclear and cytoplasmic H&E stain ing. The tissue hardening effect of formalin is balanced by the soft tissue fixation of picric acid. The tissue swelling effect of acetic acid is balanced by the tissue shrinking effect of picric acid. When using Bouin solution, several potential problems can arise. Due to the formalin ... more details

- Fixation (histology)
In the fields of histology , pathology , and cell biology , fixation is a chemical process by which biological tissue s are preserved from decay, either through Autolysis biology autolysis or putrefaction . Fixation terminates any ongoing biochemical reactions, and may also increase the mechanical strength or stability of the treated tissues. Purposes of fixation Fixation of tissue is done for several reasons. One reason is to kill the tissue so that postmortem decay autolysis and putrefaction is prevented. ref name Carson cite book title Histotechnology A Self Instructional Text last Carson first Freida L authorlink coauthors Christa Hladik edition 3 year 2009 publisher American Society for Clinical Pathology Press location Hong Kong isbn 9780891895817 page 2 pages url accessdate ref Fixation preserves a sample of biological material biological tissue tissue or biological cell cells as close to its natural state as possible in the process of preparing tissue for examination. To achieve this, several conditions usually must be met. First, a fixative usually acts to disable intrinsic biomolecules &ndash particularly proteolysis proteolytic enzyme s&mdash which otherwise digests or damages the sample. Second, a fixative typically protects a sample from extrinsic damage. Fixatives are toxic to most common microorganisms bacteria in particular that might exist in a tissue sample or which might otherwise colonise the fixed tissue. In addition, many fixatives chemically alter the fixed material to make it less palatable either indigestible or toxic to opportunistic microorganisms. Finally, fixatives often alter the cells or tissues on a molecular level to increase their mechanical strength or stability. This increased strength and rigidity can help preserve the morphology biology morphology shape and structure of the sample as it is processed for further analysis, and keep in mind size matters. Even the most careful fixation does alter the sample and introduce artifacts t ... more details
