Theory and practice of combining coagulant fixation and microwave histoprocessing.

M E Boon et al.

Biotechnic & histochemistry : official publication of the Biological Stain Commission, 83(6), 261-277 (2008-11-26)

The German, F. Blum, introduced formalin as a fixative in 1893. Formalin rapidly became popular for hardening and preserving gross human and animal specimens. As a result, microscopy for diagnostic pathology by combining paraffin embedding and formalin fixation was developed.

Efficient cultivation conditions for human limbal epithelial cells.

Mee Kum Kim et al.

Journal of Korean medical science, 23(5), 864-869 (2008-10-29)

To compare the stem niche in different culture conditions of limbal epithelial cells, the suspended human limbal epithelial cells (HLECs) were seeded on the 3T3-pretreated plates and the other suspended cells were plated on amniotic membranes (AMs) which were either

Comparison of formalin-free tissue fixatives: a proteomic study testing their application for routine pathology and research.

Hannelore Kothmaier et al.

Archives of pathology & laboratory medicine, 135(6), 744-752 (2011-06-03)

Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue is the routine processing method for diagnostics practiced in pathology departments worldwide. To determine the potential value of non-cross-linking, formalin-free tissue fixation for diagnostics in pathology and proteomic investigations. We tested 3 commercially available, formalin-free tissue fixatives-FineFIX

A soluble activin type IIA receptor induces bone formation and improves skeletal integrity.

R Scott Pearsall et al.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 105(19), 7082-7087 (2008-05-08)

Diseases that affect the regulation of bone turnover can lead to skeletal fragility and increased fracture risk. Members of the TGF-beta superfamily have been shown to be involved in the regulation of bone mass. Activin A, a TGF-beta signaling ligand
