Storage of Frozen Sections in Paraffin Blocks.
The development of the techniques for cutting frozen sections, in particular the use of cryostat microtomes (Pearse, 1960; Cunningham, Bitensky, Chayen, and Silcox, 1960 and 1962; Goodbody, 1963 a and b; Cunningham, 1963), has resulted in sections which not only are produced routinely very rapidly but which are completely acceptable histologically. Such sections would be ideal, especially where...
متن کاملMolecular Evaluation of t(14;18)(bcl-2/IgH) Translocation in Follicular Lymphoma at Diagnosis Using Paraffin-Embedded Tissue Sections
OBJECTIVE Follicular lymphoma (FL) is one of the most common lymphomas, and is characterized by t(14;18)(q32;q21) in more than 80% of patients. The aim of this study was to determine the rate of t(14;18) positivity based onthe detection of mbr or mcr in paraffin-embedded tissue samples. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study included 32 paraffin-embedded tissue samples collected from 32 consecutive F...
متن کاملImaging molecular signatures in oligodendroglioma.
In this issue of Clinical Cancer Research, Walker et al. (1) report a comprehensive analysis of metabolic rate, tumor grade, contrast enhancement, and molecular genetic alterations in oligodendrogliomas and oligoastrocytomas. Brain tumor metabolism was assessed by single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) using two radiolabeled tracers, thallium (Tl) and [F]fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG). Tl...
متن کاملComparison of Three Staining Methods of Vibratome and Paraffin Sections in Preserving Thickness of Rat Hippocampal Sections
Purpose: To determine the optimal technique for maintaining hippocampus vibratome sections volume. Materials and Methods: This experimental study was performed on three rat hippocampus. The first hippocampus was embedded in paraffin and using rotary microtome forty sections were cut in a nominal thickness of 100 micrometer. They were then ordinary stained. The two others were cut into 80 sectio...
متن کاملDiagnosis of hairy-cell leukaemia by tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase activity in paraffin-embedded tissue sections.
Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase activity may be demonstrated in paraffin-embedded liver and spleen specimens as well as in decalcified bone marrow biopsies after fixation in a mixed glutaraldehyde-formaldehyde-calcium acetate solution. This technique may routinely be applied to haematologically relevant material and aids in the differential diagnosis of hairy-cell leukaemia.
