A Sectioning Method for Large Hard Tissues by Paraffin-embedding

A Rapid Method of Paraffin Embedding

Agar-gelatin for embedding tissues prior to paraffin processing.

Benchmarks Fixed tissues often need to be arranged in a particular configuration , order, or orientation prior to processing for paraffin embedding. Although it is possible to arrange tissues after infiltration (during the final stages of paraffin embedding), it can be more convenient and practical to do this at the time of dissection or tissue collection. Agar has been the classical medium use...

Development of a Plastic Embedding Method for Large-Volume and Fluorescent-Protein-Expressing Tissues

Fluorescent proteins serve as important biomarkers for visualizing both subcellular organelles in living cells and structural and functional details in large-volume tissues or organs. However, current techniques for plastic embedding are limited in their ability to preserve fluorescence while remaining suitable for micro-optical sectioning tomography of large-volume samples. In this study, we q...

A New Document Embedding Method for News Classification

Abstract- Text classification is one of the main tasks of natural language processing (NLP). In this task, documents are classified into pre-defined categories. There is lots of news spreading on the web. A text classifier can categorize news automatically and this facilitates and accelerates access to the news. The first step in text classification is to represent documents in a suitable way t...

An Efficient Method For DNA Extraction From Paraffin Wax Embedded Tissues For PCR Amplification Of Human And Viral DNA

  Background and Objective: Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues are a valuable source of DNA for molecular studies. We designed and optimized an efficient procedure for DNA extraction from formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tissues. Materials and Methods: Seventy three blocks of cervical paraffin-embedded tissues were investigated. DNA was extracted using 45 minutes boiling in alkaline sol...
